Dress Codes: How the Laws of Fashion Changed History
Stanford Law Professor Richard Thompson Ford takes us on an exploration of fashion through the ages that asks what our clothing reveals about ourselves and our society. Dress Codes has been translated into five languages and is the inspiration for an Editor’s Choice Ted Talk for 2021.
Two of his other books were selected as Notable Books of the year by the New York Times: The Race Card: how bluffing about bias makes race relations worse (2008) and Rights Gone Wrong: how law corrupts the struggle for equality (2011). He has appeared on national television and radio programs including The Colbert Report, the Rachel Maddow Show, The New Yorker Radio Hour and All Things Considered. He was the co-host with Joe Bankman of the Sirius XM Radio program Stanford Legal from 2020-2022.
This is a free event with refreshments. Space is limited. Registration is required.
