Abstract

Why along the history of costume men and women have sought to modify their bodies through the addition or deletion of volumes, the changes to natural shapes and even the use of non functional structures?We can group the main objectives for resignify the body into four main axis: luxury-social belonging, femininity - motherhood, power-masculinity and object of desire-chastity. To decode this architecture and engineering with a historical and cultural journey through fashion is to see the body structurally modified to denote any of these four aspects as cultural precepts of every age and culture analyzed.
