...Raphael Susewind Doctoral candidate (Universität Bielefeld) and Associate (University of Oxford) Exploring Muslim belonging, the ambivalence of the sacred and diplomatic culture in India Academic dresscode (for men) I always wanted to blog about academic attire - every time I returned from a sartorially desastrous conference (frequently), every time I saw a colleague who knows how to dress without being arrogant (once in a while), every time I received comments on my own attire - appreciative (occasionally) or otherwise (rarely). A recent post on the Thesis Whisperer, and the ensuing discussion on #phdchat gave me the last necessary kick to finally write down my two cents. While doing so, I again realized that most commentary and advice out there is for women - arguably because female academics tend to be under much more scrutiny in these matters. For men, I only came across a classic rant at Inside Higher Ed - and a piece in the Chronicle which asks all the right questions - about geography, discipline, campus and role - but provides no answers. Without claiming exemplarity, I thus decided to flung open my wardrobe and assemble all those things I wore during the last couple of months in official academic contexts (except fieldwork - where I tend to wear a simple trouser-shirt-combo - but the same rules apply there, too). The collection is pictured to the right - and I will go through three classic occasions to explain what I wear, and more importantly my reasoning behind...

Need Recognition- Observation- The lady was specifically looking for pastel colored suits (ethnic wear) with very light embroidery or design. Inference- Maybe she wore Indian formals to her office. She had a need to buy suits for her office wear purposes. 2. Information Search- Observation- Initially the lady specifically looked for brands like Biba and ‘W’. Inference- Maybe through her past shopping experience she wanted to but only these two brands. She was comfortable with the fit and style of these two brands and was quite satisfied with its quality. She was looking for limited set of colors, so that reduced her information search For the next pair of suit she asked for assistance to match a churidaar for her. Again the service of sales people reduced her activity of information search. 3. Evaluation of alternatives- Observation-The lady took 4 sets of suits to the trial room and returned 2 sets.

...arbiters of all things preppy introduced a style of suit in the 1950s which was markedly different in cut from the English suits then being worn by East Coast establishment figures. The Brooks Brothers "Sack Suit," also known as the Ivy League look, was boxy, not fitted - straight up and down, not tailored at the waist. The shoulders were softer and narrower, not as stiffly padded as those in upright English models. The jacket was relatively short, particularly by today's standards, and had one centre vent. This comfortable if unsexy suit became the uniform of the American businessman, and it definitely influenced Italian designers, who also produce loose and less stiffly constructed suits. However, there are so many variations in suit design these days, across all national borders, that it is hard to identify one particular national style. Brooks Brothers probably still makes these square 1950s-style suits. I wouldn't know - ask your dad. Double-Breasted Suits These always seem dressier to me, and flashier, than other suits. They are often favoured by portly men, as their uniformly cylindrical silhouette camouflages the bulbous figure. But I think they look slick on slender men, too, particularly if they are fairly fitted. Here's the tricky thing to note about doublebreasted suits: the number of buttons varies. Again, the more modern the suit, the higher the buttons will go, and the less shirt-and-tie will be exposed. There are two rows of buttons,...

...society by using his family and the individuals shopping at his work to figure out what he wants out of life and what he doesn’t want out of life. Sammy works as a cashier at a small town grocery store called A & P somewhere in New England. From the start of the story he comes off as a sarcastic teenager who observes and analyzes everything and everybody. The whole story starts when three girls walk into the grocery store in nothing but their bathing suits. Right away, Sammy is obsessed with these girls, going into detail with what they are wearing, how they are walking, and even by the way they wear their hair. It seems purely sexual at first. For example, he goes into extreme detail about the chunky ones ‘cans’ and Queenie’s breast. He describes all three of them but really focuses on their leader, Queenie. He illustrates her as a very attractive and confident girl who has no problem walking against the crowd and convincing her friends that it is completely acceptable to go into a small town grocery store in their bathing suits. As the story progresses you get this sense that he envies her and the confidence she has to go against the social norms that the society has put there. His jealously becomes even clearer when his manager, Lengel, approaches the girls regarding their attire. He says that they want decently dressed people shopping at the store. Queenie tries to save face by saying her mother sent her to pick up a jar of herring snacks, and right away, Sammy loses himself...

...The ways in which the Baptist church worship THE TRADITIONAL SERVICE Music: Currently, this venue continues to enjoy the great hymns of the faith. A hymnal can still be found in the pew pocket. However, there are many who know most of them by heart. The song leader leads the congregation like a choir in singing everything from Amazing Grace to Zion Haste, accompanied by a pianist and an organist. There will always be a "special," just before the message, referring to a | | solo or small group musical presentation or perhaps even the choir. A Southern styled gospel quartet fits very well into this type of venue. Message: With his suit and tie uniform looking every bit the man of God he is, the pastor preaches a sermon from the Word of God to a spiritually hungry congregation. Regardless of the topic of the hour, the conclusion of every message will contain the plan of salvation. Doubtless, a hymn of invitation will be sung at the conclusion to invite sinners to come and kneel at an old fashioned altar to do business with God. As the hymn, "Just as I Am" is sung (or a similar hymn of invitation), those who respond to the calling of God's Spirit are met by personal workers up front who pray with them if needed. Souls are saved and lives are changed. | - THE CONTEMPORARY SERVICE Music: Two electric six-string guitars, a bass guitar, a digital electronic keyboard, and a set of drums flank the pulpit.

...Lula is seductive throughout the play, she is a representation of how society seduced Clay into assimilating himself within the white culture. In the play, Clay is seen wearing a fancy suit, which was not typical for black men to wear during this time period. “LULA What’ve you got that jacket and tie on in all this heat for? And why’re wearing a jacket and tie like that? Did your people ever burn witches or start revolution over the price of tea? Boy, those narrow-shoulder clothes come from a tradition you ought to feel oppressed by. A three-button suit. What right do you have to be wearing a three-button suit and striped tie? Your grandfather was a slave, he didn’t go to Harvard.” (The Dutchman) Clay’s suit is a representation of how he is trying to assimilate into white society. By wearing a fancy suit he believes he will fit into the white society. Clay is playing a part and only acting this way because society wants him to, which represents double consciousness. Clay is not looking at himself a negro, he is looking at himself as a black man who must assimilate into the white society. He is trying to create the image that he believes society wants him to...
