As John Carl Flugel observed in his book The Psychology of Clothes “ Clothes, like the house, are protective; but, being nearer the body and actually supported on it, they are (unlike the house) portable.





With their help we carry – like snails and tortoises- a sort of home upon our backs, and enjoy the advantages of shelter without the disadvantages of becoming sessile.” In a similar vein, Susan M. Watkins comments, “Clothing is our most intimate environment. What makes it a unique environment is that it is carried everywhere with an individual, creating its own room within a room and its own climate within the larger climate of our surroundings.”
