description The present paper aims to demonstrate the narrow relation between the consumer culture and the media —understood as mediators of socio-cultural relations— in the current days, as the media puts into action signification formation processes through different practices, consumer goods and habits of consumption. These processes generate "games of appearance” that allow negotiation in the construction of the individual image through the use and consumption related to clothing, fashion and also the body. Moreover, the anthropological approach to consumption itself and the appearance are problematized by showing that these relations are symbolic constructions in which the terms used must be understood from the context of its production.

The present paper aims to demonstrate the narrow relation between the consumer culture and the media —understood as mediators of socio-cultural relations— in the current days, as the media puts into action signification formation processes through different practices, consumer goods and habits of consumption. These processes generate "games of appearance” that allow negotiation in the construction of the individual image through the use and consumption related to clothing, fashion and also the body. Moreover, the anthropological approach to consumption itself and the appearance are problematized by showing that these relations are symbolic constructions in which the terms used must be understood from the context of its production. O presente artigo busca demonstrar a estreita relação entre as culturas de consumo e as mídias —entendidas como mediadoras das relações socioculturais— na contemporaneidade, na medida em que colocam em ação processos de formação de significações simbólicas, a partir das diferentes práticas, bens e hábitos de consumo. Esses processos produzem “jogos de aparência” que permitem a negociação na construção da própria imagem por meio dos usos e consumos referentes à vestimenta, a estilos e também ao corpo. Além disso, a própriaabordagem antropológica sobre o consumo e a aparência é problematizada ao evidenciar que essas relações são construções simbólicas onde os termos utilizados devem ser entendidos a partir do contexto da sua produção.
