Long in the Boot

The Clothes Make The Man?

G. Long & Deb Season 4 Episode 89

It is often said that clothes make the man or woman. What happens though, when “the man” uses clothing or outfits to control others? G. Long and Deb look at uniforms, dress codes, and sumptuary laws through the ages. Whether it was the fabric, the color, furs, or silk, those in the upper classes were determined to control the masses by punishing those who disobeyed the laws of fashion. Often, the wrong choice could mean death!
 Even today, there are those who seek to control others by regulating clothing and fashion choices. So find your purple toga, your weasel fur, or yoga pants and join us for a discussion of control by clothing on this episode of the Long in the Boot Podcast.
