“Worn” moves between courtly display, global supply chains, and the hidden hands behind clothing—so this playlist balances intimate, historical-feeling textures with wider, unsettled moods. Instrumentals first evoke dye baths, looms, and stitched histories, then the vocal tracks gradually add human voices and moral weight to match the book’s panoramic emotional arc.
