About This Item
New York: Oxford U. P., 1996. 1st edition. Near Fine. large octavo. hardback with dust jacket viii + 243pp., col. & b/w pls., bibliog., index, Ôanalyzes the relationship between fashion and fetishism. Treating fashion as a symbolic system linked to the expression of sexuality, it marshals an array of evidence from pornography, psychology and historical literature to illuminate this relationship. Is it fashion or fetish when fashion magazines feature the straps and stilettos of the dominatrix? Is the corset, whether worn by men or women, a "style" or a "perversion"?Õ.
