Fashion Crime: Dressing for Deviance

Call no.: : 391 FAS
Penulis: : Edited by: Joanne Turney
Penyumbang: : Katherine anak Alek
Ringkasan: Fashion is widely recognized as a site for social acceptance and rejection, and as a signifier of personal identity. What happens when people stray from ‘appropriate’ dress codes or associate garments with ‘respectability’ or deviance? How does fashion relate to criminality? It is a must-read for anyone interested in how the states legislates what we wear, how the media “sensationalizes” specific styles, and how wearers deemed deviant express themselves through clothing.
