Introduction To The Book ‘Love Letters To My Clothes’
<p>I recently had the pleasure of writing the foreword to Kim A. Poldner’s new book <a href="https://lecturis.nl/en/product/love-letters-to-my-clothes/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank"><em>Love letters to my clothes</em></a>. It is an inspiring and extremely aesthetically nourishing book that celebrates the clothes we wear and love — and by doing so, investigates the difference between meaningful and meaningless garments.</p>
<p>Kim has given me permission to share the foreword here with you.</p>
<p>This book is a celebration of user traces and decay, of loving bonds between people and their belongings, of the time that lingers and adds character to lovingly used things, and of inclusive sustainability. The garments in this book are carriers of time and an embodied discussion on how decay can keep an initial object-crush fresh and broaden our perspective on what sustainable fashion encompasses. They constitute a material manifesto of long-term usage.</p>
