Style is not just the clothes on our backs—it is self-expression, representation, and transformation. As a fashion-obsessed Ojibwe teen, Christian Allaire rarely saw anyone that looked like him in the magazines or movies he sought out for inspiration. Now the Fashion and Style Writer for Vogue, he is working to change that—because clothes are never just clothes. Men’s heels are a statement of pride in the face of LGTBQ+ discrimination, while ribbon shirts honor Indigenous ancestors and keep culture alive. Allaire takes the reader through boldly designed chapters to discuss additional topics like cosplay, make up, hijabs, and hair, probing the connections between fashion and history, culture, politics, and social justice. *A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection

"This exploration of regalia throughout the world and the ages, and the powerful figures who exemplify each style -- from the ceremonial robes of Chinese emperors to the wigs and stockings of seventeenth-century couriers to the casual college-inspired blazers and sunglasses of American politicians such as JFK -- provides a fascinating and comprehensive view of the sociological aspects of clothing. If there is truth in the saying 'tell me what you were and I'll tell you who you are,' then it is also true to add, 'I'll tell you what kind of society you live in." -- Dust jacket.

Many people associate fashion with style and although it took me many years, I realized that they are two different things and serve different purposes. If you know anything about my company, Lady Stylistique, then you know that I see fashion as a money scheme and believe it hinders you from becoming the best version of yourself. I believe it’s personal style that not only helps us better connect with ourselves, but it also helps us become the best version of ourselves, which you’ll see by the end of this book. So what is style? Style is anything people can see, touch, hear, smell or speak as it relates to you that reflects who you are. It’s symbols and clues that allow people to get to know you and for you to know yourself without you saying a word.
