Self-consciously set apart from everyday dress, costume marks the divide between ordinary and extraordinary settings and enables the wearer to project a different self or special identity. Pravina Shukla offers richly detailed case studies from the United States, Brazil, and Sweden to show how individuals use costumes for social communication and to express facets of their personalities.</P>CostumeHistoryCostumeSocial aspectsIdentity (Psychology)CostumeHistory.CostumeSocial aspects.Identity (Psychology)391.009Shukla Pravina911235Glassie Henry1941-131776MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910807709303321Costume3995745UNINA
