“The notion that we ought to dress for men is, then, a foolish notion indeed. And we ought to dispense with the rules for how to do it, rules that would reduce us women to a second childhood, during which we dress in the morning in what was laid out for us on the night before. In fact, we ought to dispense with the rules of ‘fashion’ more generally, for the are founded on this misguided premise: that women, grown women!, are unable to dress themselves.”
