The Politics of Women’s Clothing: How Fashion Polices Our Bodies

Send us a text

This week on The Hint Hive: Amplifying Women’s Voices, we’re tearing apart the myth that fashion is just “personal style.” Clothing has always been political, and women’s wardrobes have been used for centuries as a tool of control, judgment, and silencing. From Victorian corsets to workplace dress codes, from the policing of girls’ school attire to the obsession with First Ladies’ outfits, women have been told what to wear—and punished when they don’t comply.

In this unapologetic episode, Kelly dives into the ways society weaponizes clothing against women, why a tan suit on Barack Obama was a national scandal while women face that level of scrutiny daily, and how the fashion industry itself plays into patriarchal control. More importantly, you’ll walk away with practical steps to reclaim your style, rewrite your narrative, and use fashion as a form of resistance and empowerment.

If you’ve ever been judged, shamed, or underestimated because of what you wore, this episode is for you. Get ready to claim your space, own your choices, and unapologetically wear your power.
