This introduction to the focused issue explores confusions and contradications related to feminist perspectives in textiles and clothing research. Contributions to this issue represent various perspectives on and approaches to feminism, delving in diverse ways into the ambivalent nature of textiles, clothing, style, and fashion in women's everyday lives. The introduction also examines how we define such issues as feminine and fminist and how problematic binary oppositions such as polities versus aesthetics, masculinity versus femininity, femininity versus feminism, etc., have the effect of fostering either/or thinking at the expense of more complex, both/and, ambivalent, embodied, and other ways of knowing. The authros hope this issue will help to move ITAA toward an increasingly critical and inclusive dialogue with feminist scholars.
