MRS B 520 Posted April 27, 2022 Report Share Posted April 27, 2022 Nice to see that folks have the same memories of parents and grandparents attire. My dad used to wear a Harris Tweed Jacket and always a tie and trousers with turnups and segs in his shoes and my mum always looked immaculate until the day she passed. She was a seamstress so most of our clothes were hand made. It was always an event if we went on holiday to decide on our holiday clothes and make them. I still have her old Singer sewing machine. She reckoned that the beginning of the end of smart clothes came with the wearing of jeans. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
