Book Description: 
'This book is genius. It pinpoints all the things I have ever felt about my wardrobe... It's funny, charming and brilliantly explained. You'll feel better just reading it!' Emma Forbes'Rebecca's book considers clothes and our attitudes to them from a wildly original and truly kaleidoscopic range of angles.' Alexandra Shulman'A fascinating deep dive that will make you think differently about the clothes you wear and why you bought them.' Lisa Armstrong, The TelegraphNothing to wear? Here's the book that explains why...We've all been there: we stand in front of a wardrobe brimming with clothes, and find that nothing feels quite right, nothing makes us feel OK about ourselves. Although something new might fix it...Rebecca Willis unpicks our love-hate relationship with clothes, exploring the factors from neuroscience to the patriarchy that make us such easy prey for the fashion industry. After reading this book, you will understand why clothes matter and how they define us - and why caring about them doesn't make us vain or materialistic. You'll be able to silence your inner critic, ditch the guilt and open the wardrobe with a newfound sense of calm.
