Garments are dynamic objects, communicating a variety of meanings to those who wear and encounter them. Despite their popularity as our "second skin," clothes are as easily discarded as they are purchased-another casualty of the technocratic paradigm and a throwaway culture. Social regard towards garments-especially those produced by accelerated, fast fashion manufacturers- reflect broader, socially corrosive logics that injure the world's most vulnerable people, places, and living beings-all God's creatures and creation.In response to these wounds, this project articulates a theoretical and theological approach to garments that provides an alternative moral imagination to clothes-wearers grounded in the Christian tradition. This work articulates a vision of clothing as illustrative of integral ecology. This environmental perspective, which Pope Francis covers extensively in his encyclical Laudato Si', acknowledges the relational ecosystems in which all beings participate and on which they depend- and thus elevates relational repair to a communal and planetary level of priority. By developing an original concept, "sartorial presence," I articulate a theoretical path for disillusioned and desensitized consumers to reorient themselves to the relationships giving our lives shape and form through everyday objects, like clothing, and a theological path for Christian consumers to adequately respond to these relationships and the obligations they reveal.Following theologian Richard Osmer's practical theological framework, I articulate a multi-part path for clothes-wearers to awaken to the relational ecosystems in which they participate through their clothes, and chart paths for response. Beginning with description, I discuss the current state of the global garment industry and the interpersonal, environmental, and humanitarian impacts of clothing production, consumption, and disposal. I then turn to interpretation, providing a critique of macroscopic behaviors in commerce and social organization that have cultivated an attractive, albeit dissociative meaning system for consumers. From interpretation I move to an alternative normative meaning system, introducing the concept of "sartorial presence" and its grounding in theories and theologies (including Pope Francis' approach to integral ecology). I then establish normative ethical standards for clothes-wearers, from the field of Christian ethics and Catholic Social Teaching. I finally move towards practical responses and highlight how three kinds of practices-virtues practiced within institutions and broader social actions, disruptive artwork installations, and ecclesial practices grounded in the redemptive vision of God present on earth-can enact generative social disruption and sustain Christian clothes-wearers on the long journey of "dressing" the world's wounds through generative repair.
