Introduction: Clothing and Nationalism Studies

Abstract

This book examines European patriots who proposed nationalized clothing as a solution to the perceived problem of fashion. Ideas about sartorial nationalism obviously belong to the history of dress, yet this work contributes primarily to the history of nationalism. Patriotic schemes to reform clothing, which appeared regularly from the Enlightenment to the mid twentieth century, provide insight into the national conceptions of the individuals that produced proposed them. Plans for nationalized clothing, in short, reveal how patriots imagined the nation. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
