This final volume in the Habits of Being series shows how the dialectic between everyday appearance and outrageous acts is mediated through clothing and accessories. Employing many different approaches, these essays explore how wearing an object can stray beyond the bounds of the body on which it is placed into the discrepant territory of flagrantly excessive public signs of love, status, honor, prestige, power, desire, and display.
