Dress Him Up

Dress Him Up is a companion collection to the acclaimed Dress You Up, offering another stylish yet soulful take on how what we wear reflects who we are. In these eleven sharply tailored stories, fashion becomes a thread that binds personal history, desire, memory, and transformation. You won't find superficial tales of suiting here-this Tailored Collection of Bespoke Fiction explores masculinity, vulnerability, identity, and power through garments that conceal, reveal, and reshape the men (and boys) who wear them. Whether it's a gold silk jacket, a club tie, or a pair of difficult shoes, each story reveals how fashion marks pivotal moments in a life. Edited by Brian Centrone (Salon Style, Southern Gothic) and illustrated by Miguel Carranza, Dress Him Up is as poignant as it is polished-a literary wardrobe that will linger long after the final fitting.
