A Cultural Perspective of Dress provides a framework for studying the meanings associated with apparel, textile production, and human appearance across and within various world cultures. This framework introduces a number of themes explained and referenced by sound research and explored and illustrated by way of photographs, video selections, online resources, and other activities. The case study approach lends itself well to adding other articles, news photographs, and student experiences to class discussion.
