Thank you for the link. I passed it on to our fashion design staff here at the university. Although attitudes have changed the principles of design, embellishment of garments and the love of those featherweight machines lingers on. Interesting that the "girls" put on a fashion show to raise money for the "boys basketball team". Our students put on two shows each year of clothing they have designed and sewn but the profits, ($8,000 - $15,0000) goes to charity. Fully student run and student organized. Some traditions are not lost, just updated. Thanks for the video!
