An exciting and refreshing take on the relationship between religion and fashion through an exploration of deep dress. Silhouettes of the Soul moves beyond the Christo-centrism prominent in the study of religious dress to highlight a diverse range of religions and religious people from queer Buddhist monks to the Muslim modest fashion movement to religious robes in ancient India. This is a great book for students of fashion and curious readers alike. * Kayla Wheeler, Xavier University, USA * This provocative volume challenges readers to question assumptions about religion and ecclesiastical fashion as dress reflects new conceptions of spirit, distinguishing religious innovators from past beliefs and practices. * Elisha P. Renne, University of Michigan, USA * This volume draws together scholars from diverse disciplinary homes to offer concepts and frames to help our understanding of the role of clothing in theological constructions, devotional practices, and cultivation of the self, as well as the broader aesthetics of concealment of the human form. * Liz Bucar, Northeastern University, USA *
