Regulate now. You would think it actually levels the playing field for everyone. Never got this, nor the bizarre dysfunctional pockets on womens clothes. In wartime/rationing, the government stipulated hem size, banned turn-ups, oxford bags, specified jacket lengths, cloth weights. For working class people, clothes IMPROVED. (de-mob (de-mobilisation) suits were for some working men the best suit of clothes they had ever owned) | ||

... nor the bizarre dysfunctional pockets on womens clothes. That clearly has the function to sell purses and it works very well - even in this thread is a commenter is writing (paraphrased): I'd rather wear something cute and use a purse... The accessory market in the U.S. is worth $ 798 billion so nobody is keen to subtract from that by sewing on functional pockets. https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/fashion-... | ||
