Dressing the Resistance celebrates how we use clothing, fashion, and costume to ignite activism and fight for radical change. Exploring how people around the globe and across history have harnessed the power of dress to express themselves, costume designer and dress historian Camille Benda weaves a narrative of historical and current protest garb, from outrageous French Revolution rebel fashion to Che Guevará s mud-splattered military uniform to Pussy Riot's punk balaclavas.
Nearly two hundred archival images, photographs, and paintings bring centuries of protest to life, from ancient Roman rebellions to the #MeToo movement, from twentieth-century punk subcultures to Black Lives Matter marches. In her foreword, Ane Crabtree, costume designer for the award-winning TV series The Handmaid's Tale, asks readers what they- through their own clothing-can do to join the cause.
