Sinossi
If dresses could talk, what stories might they tell? This compelling collection of short stories, essays, and poems features dress as the structural grounding for autobiographical accounts from women's lives in Western society. Often personal in nature, these dress stories point unfailingly to matters of social and cultural import. Some of the dresses described inhabit the popular imagination: the little girl dress, the communion dress, the school uniform, the prom dress, the wedding dress, the little black dress, and the burial dress. Beyond the semiotic, tactile, and visual aspects of the dresses themselves, the narratives delve into what dresses reveal about fundamental aspects of human experience: identity, embodiment, relationship, and mortality. Bought or made, then worn, forgotten, remembered, re-constructed, and re-interpreted, each dress offers a new glimpse into how we construct meaning in our daily lives, and how dresses serve to reinforce or resist social structures and cultural expectations.

About the book >.>.> Dresses! We love them, we hate them, we gawk at them, we cover them, we long for them, we disdain them, we buy them, we make them, we wash them, we iron them, we wear them, we refuse to wear them, we work in them, we dance in them, we stain them, we tear them, we mend them, we remodel them, we ridicule them, we take them for granted, we grow out of them, we curse at them, we give them away, we forget them, we remember them with shame or longing, we store them away lovingly, we toss them crumpled on the floor, we hang on to them for ages even when they no longer fit, we hand them down, and sometimes, we even burn hem. If dresses could talk, what stories might they tell? Ask women to talk or write about dresses, and without much prompting, they will gale you with detailed snippets from their lives, anecdotes that start out ostensibly (LL).
