No matter how much or how little you care about what you wear, your sartorial choices are inextricably stitched into your social, cultural and personal identities. Clothing not only dictates how we define ourselves and relate to others throughout history, it's also been a mode of expression, resistance, revolution and disruption.

Put on your Sunday best for Griffith Review 90: Best Dressed, which goes behind the seams to unpick the many paradoxes of fashion.

About Griffith Review

Griffith Review is a leading Australian literary journal. Each quarterly edition, curated around a broad theme, offers a dynamic collection of new writing and thinking across a range of genres.

Established in 2003, Griffith Review is a key part of Australia's literary ecology, continuing to spark and foster public discourse that reflects and shapes our nation's cultural, political and social life.
