Clothing behaviour in Nina’s design are valuable for examining the relationships between marginal discourses and hegemonic discourses.
Specially in this period, the set of clothing discourses always includes discourses that support conformity toward dominant conceptions of social roles and discourses that express social tensions that are pushing widely-accepted conceptions on clothing behaviour as Non-Verbal Resistance in new directions.
