This episode is part 2 of 3.  This week we will be tackling the concept of \"professionalism\" and how that ties into dress codes. We will do a deep dive into the different categories of professional dress. And we will get to the bottom of how/why these dress codes are enforced, despite the language within these policies being very subjective and unmeasurable.  This episode also includes thoughts/stories from Pat, Jenny, and Carla.\nWe recommend reading Dress Codes: How the Laws of Fashion Made History by Richard Thompson Ford.\nAlso check out \"You Call It Professionalism; I Call It Oppression in a Three-Piece Suit,\" by Carmen Rios for Everyday Feminism.\nFind this episode's transcript (and so much more) at clotheshorsepodcast.com\nWant to support Amanda's work on Clotheshorse?
