What we wear has always meant more than meets the eye.
From ancient robes and royal regalia to corsets, catwalks, and cultural resistance, Threads of Identity unravels the powerful story of fashion as a mirror of civilization. Spanning continents and centuries, this richly woven narrative explores how clothing has shaped?and been shaped by?class, gender, politics, and belief.
With vivid detail and thoughtful analysis, M.Y. Sard guides readers through the draped elegance of Greece, the controlled silhouettes of Victorian England, the streetwear revolutions of the 21st century, and everything in between. Along the way, we meet the rebels, reformers, icons, and artisans who turned fabric into a force for change.
Insightful, accessible, and global in scope, this is not just a history of style?it's a history of human expression.
Fashion is more than fashion. It is who we are.
