- More about Fashion | Sense: On Philosophy and Fashion
Salman Rushdie's "Fashion | Sense" explores the rift between fashion and philosophy, challenging the claim that fashion is modern. Gwenda-lin Grewal examines the quarrel between fashion and philosophy, which may be as ancient as the quarrel between philosophy and poetry. The quest for fashion's origins prompts questions about human agency and our immersion in time. Grewal's writing is playfully and daringly self-conscious, aware of its style and the entrapment it arouses.

Salman Rushdie's "Fashion | Sense" is a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between fashion and philosophy, challenging the notion that fashion is superficial and modern. Drawing on ancient Greek texts and contemporary fashion and pop culture, Gwenda-lin Grewal examines the rift between fashion and philosophy, highlighting the quest for fashion's origins and the impact of our relationship with our looks on our understanding of human agency and our immersion in time. Grewal's writing is playful and self-conscious, reflecting on the style and entrapment it arouses from the very first line. The reactions provoked by fashion's flair show it as perhaps philosophy's most important and underestimated doppelgänger.
