Title: | Reviewing the concept of the "pure" white menswear shirt | Authors: | Vermeulen, Lester Jacque | Keywords: | Men's clothing | Issue Date: | 2010 | Publisher: | Cape Peninsula University of Technology | Abstract: | Wearing clothes such as the white shirt is a part of everyday life and history. In the 21st century, the persistence of the white shirt as a staple basic menswear garment is still apparent, and thus the focus of this range. The white menswear button- up shirt is not simply worn for any insignificant reason but may signify a number of associations, such as: purity, status, class, righteousness or it may even stand as a symbol of human rights. I would also want to add eco-consciousness to these meanings. As environmental awareness increases and the need to curb the effects of global warming becomes more pressing, the design-conscious and eco-conscious consumer plays a fundamental role in achieving this role. | Description: | Thesis (BTech (Fashion Design))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2010 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11838/1342 |
