Abstract
This article explores the ways that imagination and dress intertwine in the anticipation of how articles of clothing will induct new ways of being and then the ways we phenomenologically perceive ourselves as altered in their wearing. By engaging with the work of philosophers such as John D. Lyons, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Iris Marion Young, as well as examples from literature and my own experience of dressing and being dressed, this article considers the dynamic affective and embodied processed ineluctably woven with dress.
