On the Globalisation of Fashion |
| Description |
Upon first glance, the images of men and women in Papua New Guinea dressed in tattered rags and shredded T-shirts tempt you to view them as yet another advertisement meant to elicit sympathetic donations.
Even the children — although smiling — wear filthy T-shirts held together only by carefully re-knotting the already detached shreds.
You may even feel a sense of guilt upon viewing the obvious Western influence in the dress of these people. They appear to live in such poverty, and their traditional dress has now been replaced by one of the most simplistic mass-produced wares of the west — the T-shirt.
