I'm a fashion history nrrrd, so am glad to see that someone included the polo Brooks Bros. polo collar info as well as differences between mens and womens garments.

My uncle told me that men's shirts button on the convenient side because back in Victorian times, they would get themselves dressed. Women's buttons would be less convenient for a right-handed person because they would usually have a hired servant to adjust their stays -starting at the bottom to make their waists as small as possible- and buttoning up. <br /><br />Long-winded response, but our obsession with a skinny waist made "button-up" the correct term for women and "button-down" a term for men.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13856170372047081631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33976691.post-33740232841907648832010-04-20T17:31:48.606-07:002010-04-20T17:31:48.606-07:00Button down
