PSYCHOLOGY OF FASHION ; Fenomena Perempuan (Melepas) Jilbab
Buku ini berisikan hasil riset terhadap subjek yang melepas jilbabnya dan lebih menyoroti perempuan yang melepas jilbabnya (setelah sebelumnya mengenakan jilbab) dari perspektif psikososial filosofis, dengan didukung teori psikologi kontemporer. Buku ini menghadirkan pergulatan atau dinamika kepercayaan eksistensial muslimah yang melepaskan jilbabnya pada sebelum, sedang dan sesudah melakukan tindakan itu. Meskipun tidak berpretensi mewakili seluruh muslimah di Indonesia yang melepas jilbab, buku ini dapat menggugah kearifan masyarakat sebagai pribadi dan ketika dihadapkan pada fenomena ini. Buku ini juga mengandung muatan psikologi perkembangan, psikologi perempuan, psikologi spiritual dan psikologi sosial. Juneman menegaskan, semua muslimah dalam penelitian di buku tersebut tetap menjadi seorang muslim sampai mereka telah melepaskan jilbabnya saat ini, namun cara mereka menjadi muslim, dan lebih khusus cara memakai jilbab dan berjilbab beberapa kali diperdalam, diperluas dan ditata kembali.
