Exploring the intersection of philosophy and fashion, Pappas delves into modern interpretations of fashion and its counterpart, anti-fashion. He posits that the debate surrounding these concepts extends to antiquity, exemplified by the nudity practiced in gymnasia as a form of anti-fashion. This perspective offers insights into ancient philosophy's relationship with society, illustrating how philosophical thought navigates the complexities of social norms and cultural expressions.
