Why do women wear what they wear? What does the daily choice of a suit depend on and what does the closet store besides clothes? What guides the owners of closets, choosing an outfit for a formal occasion or a party? Sophie Woodward tried to find the answers to these questions by examining the closets of London and Nottingham residents. By observing how they choose clothes for different occasions, the author demonstrates the variety of factors that influence this process: from cultural or ethnic identity to bodily sensations from contact with the fabric. The act of constructing a public image, which takes place in the private space, turns out to be connected with personal stories of life, family relations and search for oneself. The author embeds them in a social and cultural context, giving the reader a new perspective on more general issues related to fashion and identity. Sophie Woodward is an English sociologist, PhD, Professor at the University of Manchester.
