Fashion Explores Dreams and Desire Through Psychoanalysis
Reading
A new show is about fashion and Freud. It looks at clothes with ideas from psychoanalysis. The show took five years to make, with many things to see.
Valerie Steele chose almost 100 designer clothes for the show. She wants to show the link between fashion and our minds. She also talks about things like desire and the need for protection.
The show is called “Dress, Dreams & Desire”. It is at the Fashion Institute of Technology museum. It will be open from September to January, with a book coming in November.
Freud thought clothes could help women feel okay about being nude. Some dresses show more skin today. One dress in the show is the green Versace dress worn by Jennifer Lopez.
Fashion can feel like a second skin, offering more than just looks. Clothes can protect or show off the body. One idea is that fashion shows our worry about being seen or not seen.
