Independent blogger, Kristy Powell, decided to begin a digital action, beginning on January 3rd, 2011 and ending on January 3rd, 2012, where she would wear one dress for an entire year to call attention to the politics of fashion's dominance over our quotidian lives and relationships with our own bodies.
For an entire year, Kristy Powell wore the same dress everyday. She completed this act in order to take a stand against the fashion industry and the standards of status quo. She challenged the ideas of fashion, beauty, and our own body. Kristy mirrored this movement off of Sheena Matheiken, who also wore one dress for a year. Unlike Sheena, Kristy wrote of her experience while Sheena took photos.
