Abstract Details

2021, Bachelor of Arts, Ashland University, History/Political Science.
Fashion plays a very important role in the lives in modern-day America, and fashion in politics is no different. Politicians use their fashion to convey a message about themselves and their campaigns. Women in American politics are left in a difficult position, as they gain a lot of extra attention and criticism regarding their attire. Problems arise when this attention on their clothing takes away from what women are trying to say. This is seen throughout history as women become more and more active in politics. If women are able to get over their criticisms, then they are able to use this extra attention to their advantage.
