Dress for Walking in the City

Cotton, acrylic; size 40 (U.S. 2). Made in Italy.
Apparel, itself a haptic image, works as a mobile frame and plays the surface – the edge of one’s interior and exterior – in the picturing of self. (…) Fashion works, as film does, to frame and map the appearance of the body, redefining its sensibility and energetic borders.
Giuliana Bruno, Atlas of Emotions
