Suitable: The Sartorial Revolution and the Fashioning of Modern Men
Chapin, Chloe (, Harvard University)
How did black suits become so ubiquitous? Why has men's clothing been so plain since the American Revolution? In Suitable, American historian and costume designer Chloe Chapin offers a deeply researched and groundbreaking explanation for why American men's fashion was standardized from the time of the nation's founding and how it became an invisible form of social and political power.
