It's So You explores the intersection between style and personal expression through lively essays by 35 top women writers and artists. Six Feet Under Producer Jill Soloway cuts off her hair and wrestles the concept of "hotness"; transgender icon Kate Bornstein details her fashion evolution from flower child to SM leather dyke to couture girly-girl; and Sonic Youth's Kim Gordon wonders if getting caught without underwear is the ultimate Hollywood celebutante fashion statement. It's So You celebrates not only the frivolity and playfulness of women's fashion, but also women's ability to find their own styles and delight in fashion--without feeling like they're selling out or buying into consumerism.Tea, Michelle is the author of 'It's So You 35 Women Write About Personal Expression Through Fashion and Style', published 2007 under ISBN 9781580052153 and ISBN 1580052150.
