| | Intersections: Stitching at the Boundaries: Vietnamese Garment Industry Workers in Transnational Spaces |
 | | In Australia, garment industry workers are primarily women working in their own homes. |  | | There are numerous popular conceptions of women in the clothing industry such as women have 'nimble fingers', 'fine eyesight' and as workers are 'more docile', 'willing to work long hours', 'don't need to earn as much as men as they will be taken care of at home', 'able to undertake repetitive work' and 'uncomplaining'. |  | | [60] The film was about the world of home-based garment industry workers in Sydney. |

| | Crazy Rhythm by Leonard Garment PopMatters Book Review |
 | | His years as a jazz musician seem to be the happiest of his life; he backed up Billie Holiday for two weeks, played with obscure saxophonist Alan Greenspan, and was poor as a church mouse but happy. |  | | He was never flashy and rarely in the public eye; his place in history, as he admits in this autobiography, was largely marginal and decidedly minor-key. |  | | His descriptions of his angry-liberal father and his sharp-tongued mother still ring with sadness and rage. |

| | Clothing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In the thousands of years that humans have spent constructing clothing, they have created an astonishing array of styles, many of which we can reconstruct from surviving garments, photos, paintings, mosaics, etc., as well as from written descriptions. |  | | Coalitions of NGO's and trade unions like the Clean clothes campaign (CCC) seek to improve these conditions as much as possible by sponsoring awareness-raising events, which draw the attention of both the media and the general public to the workers' plight. |  | | In other societies (including most modern societies), no laws prohibit lower-status people from wearing high-status garments, but the high cost of status garments effectively limits purchase and display. |

 | | This garment was found in 1931 in the Moy Bog, County Clare, Ireland. It has never been published, except for a small section in Dunlevy. |  | | A long sleeved garment, it is presumed to have been a woman's although this is not proven (the body it was found with was said to have been that of a woman, however, how this determination was made is unknown). |  | | McGann's patience in sharing her work so that I might include it here has been exemplary. The gown has not been absolutely dated, although from the basic format of the shoulder and skirts suggests to me that a date between about 1350-1500 is plausible. |
