With a critical eye trained on the capitalistic allure and environmental impact of the fashion industry, this timely and stirringly argued book puts forward a radical new approach to the way we represent ourselves through our clothes.

Fashion: A Manifesto takes a look at the psychology of fashion in order to unpick the hold it has on so many of us. On the one hand clothes can supposedly help you out with embodied life by concealing the bits you feel ashamed of and accentuating the bits you’re proud of. However, fashion isn’t really about clothes in any practical sense, but rather the endless replacement of clothes by other clothes, and especially the vilification of certain styles and the extreme elevation of others.

Like gambling, fashion is a system that keeps us captivated by treating us badly, trapping us in a cycle of promises and dashed hopes by suggesting that new clothes will help us to like ourselves more. And while it’s easy to dismiss fashion as elitist and wasteful, isn’t fashion also fascinating, exciting and perhaps sometimes even radical—not to mention surprisingly egalitarian?

Rather than insisting we give up on the pleasures that clothes have to offer, this brilliant new book by psychoanalyst and writer Anouchka Grose puts forward a post-fashion logic that rejects the parade of manufactured novelties in favor of more idiosyncratic forms of sartorial imitation.

Taking us on a journey from the court of Louis XIV to TikTok’s avant apocalypse, Fashion: A Manifesto scrutinizes fashion from a number of angles: historically, psychologically, politically, environmentally, even linguistically, to open up questions about the ways in which it works both for and against us and looks forward to a future where our clothes treat us—not to mention the planet—a great deal more kindly.

Comfortable everyday shirt with a clean fit and great price
Color: Light Grey, Size: Medium
This is a really comfortable short sleeve button down that feels easy to wear right out of the package. The material has a nice stretch to it which makes it move with you instead of feeling stiff, and it lays nicely on the body for a more fitted but still relaxed look. It keeps a pretty clean shape throughout the day and does not wrinkle too badly compared to heavier shirts, which helps it look put together without much effort. The fit is one of the better parts since it sits well through the chest and shoulders without feeling tight, and the sleeves have a nice taper that gives it a more modern look. Stitching and overall construction feel solid, and the buttons and seams seem secure and well aligned. It works well for casual wear or even a more dressed up casual office setting depending on how you style it.

Decent fit, comfortable, but washed out black color
Color: Black, Size: Large, Color: Black, Size: Large
This shirt fits well and sits comfortably through the shoulders and chest. The stretch in the material helps it move easily, and the cut works fine for casual or office use. The overall feel is straightforward and easy to wear. The black color is more like a washed or faded black rather than the rich black I was expecting. It doesn’t have that deep tone that stands out, and the material itself doesn’t give off a premium impression. It still works fine for regular wear and doesn’t cause any issues while moving around. Even with the lighter black tone and the average material, the fit and comfort make it a decent shirt for everyday use or simple business‑casual outfits.
