"The New Dress" by Virginia Woolf explores themes of self-consciousness, social alienation, and the complexity of human interaction. The story follows the main character, Mabel Waring, as she attends a party and becomes increasingly self-conscious about her new dress, which ultimately leads her to feel isolated and out of place among the other guests. Woolf uses Mabel's experience to comment on the impact of societal norms and expectations on individual identity and behavior.
haven't read the story, but if there is an actual dress in the story, think about: who bought it, where did the money come from, who did the labor to make the money for the person who bought it, who can't afford it? how aware is she who has the dress of those who cannot afford it or of its manufacturing process
