Carol Perkins: Store Bought Previous Column: Give it UP By Carol Perkins A store-bought dress was a luxury when I was young. Few of us girls had plentiful clothes, but we protected what we had. We ironed our cotton summer dresses and pressed our wool skirts with a newspaper over the top. Occasionally, we sent them to the dry cleaners. My aunt Clarice could sew like a professional, so I remember several pieces she made. I was proud of them because they looked "store-bought." I am a fan of "Project Runway." Watching it takes me back to when my mother (and other mothers) sought local seamstresses to sew for us. We could have more outfits because fabric and patterns were inexpensive. However, young girls longed for those outfits on mannequins in store windows. It was a sign of "money" to have a store-bought outfit, and most of us were materialistic. Teenagers usually are. Even those whose mothers could sew beautifully often longed for a department store dress. My first encounter with an attitude about homemade clothing came from a woman sitting in a chair at a local beauty shop, and I was also there in the next booth (separated by a thin wall).
