It's a place to
hide your homosexuality, your mental illness, your social awkwardness, your deep unresolved
feelings of insecurity and inadequacy... all with a literal robe to cover them up.
Despite the warm fuzzies I get from my vintage Dior New Look - inspired dresses, every so often I like to challenge myself a bit to step outside
of that place where I
feel safe and secure... Because really, if we're
hiding something due to
insecurity, over time it'll work itself into our brain that there are areas
of our bodies that ALWAYS need to be covered up.
