About this listen

 Nova Q explores the bizarre world of fashion throughout history, from Victorian women poisoning themselves with arsenic face cream to towering hairstyles that housed mice. The episode covers dangerous beauty trends, modern fashion subcultures like Harajuku and Clowncore, viral TikTok trends, and how fashion serves as both individual expression and social rebellion. From foot binding to shoulder pads, Nova reveals how humans have always been willing to suffer for beauty and how fashion trends reflect deeper psychological and cultural needs.
