I have always loved the feel of new clothes, and I come from a mother who always washed clothes before allowing anyone to wear them. The interesting thing about the Adam and Eve story in the Bible is the fact they felt a sudden sense of nakedness and how they did not wish to be naked in front of each other. That does not speak of an Eden but of a very human response both to clothing and to nakedness.
I often thought when I was young we started wearing clothes to keep warm but if we were walking around warm climates the reasons for adornments were far different. They are a sign of how we think about ourselves. A demonstration of how we want others to view us. Even in hot climates today the children run around naked but for a thread here, or a little piece of jewelry there. We knew about clothing long before we needed to keep warm in cold climates.
We knew about fabrics and how the make cheap and expensive clothes and how clothes give eminence and take it away. Most of all we knew the difference between being dressed and naked, of being in a community and alone. The creation of clothing has been mythologized into our nature as a departure from perfection but clothes tell us everything about how we think and who we want to be.
