| | Synopsis
|
"Style is not just the clothes on our backs—it is
self-expression, representation, and transformation. As a
fashion-obsessed Ojibwe teen, Christian Allaire rarely saw anyone
that looked like him in the magazines or movies he looked to for
inspiration. Now the Fashion and Style Writer for 'Vogue,' he is
working to change that—because clothes are never just clothes. Men's
heels are a statement of pride in the face of LGTBQ+ discrimination,
while ribbon shirts honor Indigenous ancestors and keep culture
alive. Allaire takes the reader through boldly designed chapters to
discuss additional topics like cosplay, make up, hijabs, and hair,
probing the connections between fashion and history, culture,
politics, and social justice"—Provided by publisher.
