Summary/Abstract: In this second part of the article, I have further aimed at the narrative ways by which writers introduced the few references to the uniformity of clothing. Pudency, the grotesque aspects connected to an entire imagery of intimate clothing, as well as the categories of social uniforms prove not only a concern for the connotations of the communist clothes, but also their acceptance. Therefore, the sequences that deal with clothing issues are few, accidental and without critical perspective.
