Mode & féchitisme
Work detail
This study explores the relationship between clothing, desire, and social meaning, examining how fashion can become a vehicle for erotic expression and identity. Drawing on historical and cultural perspectives, it considers garments, styles, and visual codes that challenge conventional ideas of dress, respectability, and the body. Its focus on fetishism situates fashion beyond utility or decoration, treating it as a medium through which power, fantasy, memory, and transgression can be communicated. The work offers a focused look at how erotic aesthetics shape, and are shaped by, changing ideas about style, self-presentation, and the cultural history of dress.
