<p>While there are a great many books on the Hollywood star system and its costuming, and a number of books on queer cinema, the role of lesbian dress styles in constructing lesbian characters has yet to be the subject of a discrete, detailed book study. </p><p>&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;&#8203;<i>Lesbian Styles in Cinema</i> examines how dress constructs lesbian characters as a form of representation and visual communication in film. By focusing on a set of independent and studio films that highlight lesbian dress practices, from Leontine Segan's <i>Madchen in Uniform</i> (1931) and other lesbian classics such as Donna Dietch's <i>Desert Hearts</i> (1985) to the Wachowski sisters <i>Bound</i> (1996) and Rose Glass' <i>Love Lies Bleeding</i> (2024), this book unpacks the role of sartorial codes in producing narratives of lesbian subjectivities, representation and desire.</p>
