Moving beyond fashion as merely an expression of Western European high-culture, fashion is assessed as a global phenomenon drawing on a number of registers that are basic to human expression. In doing so, participants gain essential tools for thinking theologically about not only fashion, but indeed, about a number of cultural practices that compose our everyday life.
