ARAUJO, Oliveira de. Metamorfose Corporal na Moda e no Carnaval. Cuad. Cent. Estud. Diseñ. Comun., Ensayos [online]. 2019, n.76, pp.15-35. ISSN 1853-3523.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18682/cdc.vi76.1053.

The aim of this article is to analyze the challenges of form in the genderized bodies present in the world of fashion and carnival in Rio de Janeiro. The body is an essential dimension of human existence in any culture, and it has been growing more and more critical in the contemporary world. The human being exists and participates in social groups through his body. The body is much more than a bunch of muscles and bones, for any gender; it is also the garments and the style that it bears, and the image it projects -being a permanent challenge for fashion specialized workers. The dualism of sex and gender is a most critical dimension of all those processes.

Palabras clave : Body; Gender,Fashion; Carnival; Metamorphosis; Communication; Body language.
