Look Again: Fashion

Look Again is a new series of short books from Tate Publishing, opening up the conversation about British art over the last 500 years, and exploring what art has to tell us about our lives today. Written by leading voices from the worlds of literature, art and culture, each book sheds new light on some of the most well-known, best-loved and thought-provoking artworks in the national collection, and asks us to look again. 'How we dress can be a deeply personal matter. In general, we take dress as an expression of individuality or identity. But can dress also be the object of deeper artistic enquiry, and can it tell us something more about the societies in which we live? These are the questions at the heart of this book.
