Między opresją a subwersją – moda jako potencjalna przestrzeń wyrazu nienormatywnej cielesności

Abstrakt

The author analyses the presence of androgyny and transsexuality mainly in fashion industry which fashion journalists and commentators like to see as a milestone in the fight for equality, stressing the ambivalence of marketing techniques and arguing that – similarly to Erving Goffman’s category of stigma – apart from having subversive potential it can also have an oppressive downside.
