Immanuel Kant

This theory revolves around judgement and whether or not it provides pleasure.

Clothes: Everyone has their own sense of style. People find pleasure in finding a clothing piece that they like. People also find pleasure in wearing clothes that fit their style. Kant states that art is subjective, and clothing style is a clear example of this theory.

Feminine Aesthetic

The feminine aesthetic refers to a "look" that revolves around gender based stereotypes about women. This usually involves soft, cute, delicate things. These stereotype mostly comes from the idea that women are nurturing because they give birth to babies.

An example of this would be a woman who is petit, and has baby like features. This woman would look soft and gentle like a baby, connecting her to the feminine aesthetic.
