Neuware - A revelatory new approach to understanding fashion in America that focuses on the stories told by worn, imperfect, and ordinary clothes2025 Winner of Midwest Art History Society Awards for Outstanding CatalogsExpanding the history of American fashion, this volume highlights garments that carry material traces of everyday wearers' bodies, such as stains, rips, tears, mending, and signs of hand-craftsmanship. In-depth examinations of ten case-study objects-ranging from activist Jae Jarrell's Urban Wall Suit (ca. 1969) to an unknown child's pair of sneakers found at a migrant pickup site in the Sonoran Desert (2009-10)-reveal the ways worn objects are witnesses to American history.By foregrounding worn, ordinary, and imperfect garments, the essays in this volume respond to the fact that histories of American fashion have traditionally centered on mass-manufactured American sportswear, notable designers, whitewashed histories of Western wear, and the 'American Look.' This canon, though familiar, stands starkly at odds with the lived realities of the American experience.
