I'm not the norm, but I wonder what my wardrobe would look be if I had American made as a requirement. mimi jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09046101113822427313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1654329590294133998.post-15469162914310616522014-06-11T01:56:28.803-04:002014-06-11T01:56:28.803-04:00I think that if there were a greater demand for U....I think that if there were a greater demand for U.S.-made clothing it could work. One of my favorite clothing brands, Pinup Girl, is actually U.S. made and they put special tags on their garments to advertise that. It's also a woman-owned and run business (to include much of the designing), and they make garments in sizes from XS to 4X, so they do have a wider audience. And judging from the number of women who like their Facebook page and routinely post photos of themselves in 'just-purchased' garments, as well as from the speed at which new items sell out, they must be doing something right. Sure, the prices are not Walmart or JC Penney prices. But the garments still sell.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11447949592701882774noreply@blogger.com
