- Title
Fashion and the Aesthetic Aspects of Social Life.
- Authors
Eun Jung Kang
- Abstract
Fashion is an important source for shedding light on modern aesthetic experience. Not only does fashion represent concrete aesthetic quality that reveals the spirit of the times, but it also epitomizes the social relations in liaison with the aesthetic taste of the times. This essay discusses the relationship between Georg Simmel's sociological aesthetics and Hegel's dialectics, demonstrates fashion as a domain in which subjectobject relations are operative, and shows how fashion hypostatizes the dialectical relations between mind and body and between the individual and the collective while connecting subject and object.
