This editorial delves into the intimate relationship between the body and material, focusing on how women use clothing to build community and strengthen bonds through shared style. It explores how women in friendships, shared spaces and relationships might adopt aspects of one another’s style of dress and self presentation, as a form of admiration and shared girlhood. To mirror one another’s silhouettes and fashion choices can act as a form of connection and sisterhood, creating a collective expression of identity that promotes community. The act of dressing becomes an empowering language of embracing shared femininity, where fabrics and shapes not only adorn the body but also weave ties of solidarity and sisterhood. To re-centre the female experience, this chapter redefines clothing as a medium of both personal expression and communal unity, inviting a deeper reflection on how material and body intertwine to shape a shared narrative of femininity.
