Abstract

The study of dress and adornment practices is perforce the study of the materialisation of intersecting identities. Class, gender, sexuality, age, race, dis/ability and other identity markers are all writ large on an individual’s clothed body and Crenshaw’s (1991: 1296) suggestion in her influential Stanford Law Review article, ‘Mapping the margins: intersectionality, identity politics, and violence against women of color’, ‘that intersectionality might be […] broadly useful as a way of mediating the tension between assertions of multiple identity and the ongoing necessity of group politics’ sits at the heart of this issue of Clothing Cultures. Both explicitly and implicitly, the papers herein respond to Crenshaw’s behest that intersectionality ‘be expanded by factoring in issues such as class, sexual orientation, age, and color’ (1991: 1245). They reveal and explore the power of such socially constructed identity categories and in doing so corroborate her belief that categories do indeed ‘have meaning and consequences’ but that the ‘most pressing problem, in many if not most cases, is not the existence of the categories, but rather the particular values attached to them, and the way those values foster and create social hierarchies’ (1991: 1297).
交叉连衣裙
对服饰实践的研究就是对交叉身份的物质化的研究。阶级、性别、性取向、年龄、种族、残疾和其他身份标志都写在一个人的衣服上,克伦肖(1991:1296)在她颇具影响力的《斯坦福法律评论》文章《绘制边缘:交叉性、身份政治和对有色人种妇女的暴力》中提出了建议,“这种交叉性可能[…]广泛有用,可以作为一种调解多重身份断言和群体政治持续必要性之间紧张关系的方式”,这是服装文化问题的核心。本文的论文明确和含蓄地回应了克伦肖的要求,即“通过考虑阶级、性取向、年龄和肤色等问题来扩大交叉性”(1991:1245)。它们揭示和探索了这种社会构建的身份类别的力量,并在这样做的过程中证实了她的信念,即类别确实“有意义和后果”,但“在许多情况下,如果不是大多数情况下,最紧迫的问题不是类别的存在,而是附加在它们身上的特定价值观,以及这些价值观培育和创造社会等级制度的方式(1991:1297)。
