穿越了：從服裝史墓全球製衣體系背後的秘辛

Thunberg weaves together the history of clothing with extraordinary scholarship and concise prose, allowing readers to understand that the story of human clothing is a history of death, disease, exploitation, and environmental destruction... (and) how we choose what harms to condemn. In this broad-ranging social history, Thunberg masterfully tells the stories of five textile raw materials—linen, cotton, silk, synthetics, and wool—elucidating the development and origins of human clothing in unexpected ways that enlighten our understanding of the world. This book not only exposes the dark side of the fashion industry but also incorporates climate issues, delves into modern history, and quickly introduces readers to labor rights issues in the textile industry, bringing together all hot topics. She takes readers on a journey through time, from the opulent court of King Louis XIV to contemporary forced labor camps in Xinjiang under Chinese occupation. We see how ancient textiles were dyed with lichens, shells, bark, saffron, and beetles, showcasing unique regional weaving and knitting characteristics; and how the modern Western garment industry, fueled by fast fashion brands, has reshaped our clothing into monotonous, disposable uniforms.
