Abstract

This paper discusses how postmodernity blurs the traditional frontiers of knowledge. Taking clothes as media, we seek to demonstrate that many of the references that delimit social categories are ceasing to exist, causing blurring of their limits. New ways of dressing, such as the fashion of trappers, question fashion boundaries and re-signify class demarcations through clothing.
Keywords: Media. Post-modernity. Clothing. Blurred boundaries. Trappers.
