A process that focused on amplifying “personal visibility”, and in which the abilities of tailors played a crucial role.

For all these and many other reasons, we can state that fashion moved and was a metaphor of modernity. 2022-06-01T12:29:40Z 2022-06-01T12:29:40Z 2022 chapter ONIX_20220601_9788855185653_793 9788855185653 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/56609 ita Datini Studies in Economic History application/pdf Attribution 4.0 International 29742.pdf https://books.fupress.com/doi/capitoli/978-88-5518-565-3_2 Firenze University Press 10.36253/978-88-5518-565-3.02 10.36253/978-88-5518-565-3.02 bf65d21a-78e5-4ba2-983a-dbfa90962870 9788855185653 2 8 Florence open access
