Suknie i makijaże – realizacja mitu piękności w pisarstwie Stefana Chwina

Each of the writer`s novels mirrors postmodern literary tendencies and their characters are presented from different perspectives. The characters’ clothes, make ups and decorations are different and they show their values. The author connects them with basic psychological needs of the receivers resulting from the psychological safety and community. The characters are creations of popular aesthetic, products of television and the cultural experience connected with it. Using audiovisual means Chwin introduces the TV-series aesthetics to his texts building up some symbolical meanings upon it. He realizes that the real sense of his story starts functioning in messages, which are mixed with experiences and socio-psychological sympathies. The unique dressing-style is a way of expressing oneself. It defines the relation between appearance and personality.
