English term or phrase: We viewers learn a lot about the women represented on the show—
But they are also boundaries, limits: ways in which a world controls and curtails female bodies and identities. We viewers learn a lot about the women represented on the show—about their hopes, desires, ambitions, deceptions, interior worlds—through the clothes that they choose (and a lot about their position in that world through the clothes they can choose).

not clear which women are on the show. And I assume it's a TV show ("viewers") or is it an exhibition (judging by your other questions?) please give a bit mor context..

anyway "learn a lot about" means just that. People can learn about the lives/occupations/mindsets of the women seen...
