Why do we wear what we wear? To answer this question, we must go back and unlock the wardrobes of the early twentieth century, when fashion as we know it was born.In Bring No Clothes, acclaimed fashion writer Charlie Porter brings us face to face with six members of the Bloomsbury Groupthe collective of creatives and thinkers who were in the vanguard of a social and sartorial revolution. Each of them offers fresh insight into the constraints and possibilities of fashion today: from the stifling repression of E. M. Forster´s top buttons to the creativity of Vanessa Bell´s wayward hems from the sheer pleasure of Ottoline Morrell´s lavish dresses to the clashing selfconsciousness of Virginia Woolf´s orange stockings from Duncan Grant´s liberated play with nudity to John Maynard Keynes´s power play in the traditional suit. As Porter carefully unpicks what they wore and how they wore it, we see how clothing can be a means of artistic, intellectual and sexual liberation, or, conversely, a tool for patriarchal control.As he travels through libraries, archives, attics and studios, Porter uncovers new evidence about his subjects, revealing them in a thrillingly intimate, vivid new light. And, as he begins making his own clothing, his own perspective on fashionand on lifestarts to change. In the end, he shows, we should all ´bring no clothes´, embracing not just a new way with fashion but a new philosophy of livingone which activates the connections between the way we dress and the way we think, act and love.
