Editorial Reviews
Review
Booklist : "As in many other Greenhaven series, such as Opposing Viewpoints, these volumes in the new Examining Pop Culture series includes excerpts from a range of periodicals and primary sources. Both titles, with their sophisticated language and bibliographies of mostly scholarly resources, are best suited for older, academically advanced teens. A fine new series to spark well-informed discussions about lifestyle and current issues."

Book Description
Clothing is a form of expression; examining fashion trends in society can provide insight into how people view themselves and how they want to be perceived by others. Articles in this anthology explore the link between fashion and personal identity, what men's and women's fashion trends reveal about gender roles, and the fashion industry's role in dictating what's "in."
