Welcome
Academic philosophy can sometimes feel nebulous and disconnected from public sphere interests and concerns, especially regarding its relationship with the world of fashion. That’s where Aesthetic Philosopher comes in. I believe there is significant gain when discussing, enjoying, and understanding our engagement with the fashion world. Fashion is the source of culture and a mirror that allows us to be introspective and critical of the cultural relationships between beauty, capitalism, feminism, and the patriarchy. My blog posts will analyze fashion designs, magazine cover choices, and fashion trends to engage and learn more from feminist philosophy, Marxist Theory, and aesthetics.
When reading articles, please note that I may not be making the same assumptions. Giving the space to make comments and learn is part of the fun in being a philosopher. I welcome helpful critiques and information that could help my intellectual growth. Philosophy cannot be done alone, and perspective matters!
For now, I thank you for visiting, and I hope you enjoy reading as much as I enjoy writing.
