Some hanging tales...

[1]I'm getting a lot of interior brainwaves at the moment as I plan to move out of my hovel soon, with the boyf and into what will hopefully be a lush pad or at least Hovel v.2.2 beta.  However, those ideas weren't ever going to escape the fashion realms and one of them involves an everchanging display where we try to 'artfully' hang some clothes with some tags giving a bit of a tale behind them.  Not a precise factual history but just a little anecdote, a conversation, a story that is connected with the piece of clothing.  AKA an idea that I aped when I was reading Dreamecho's [2] review of the vintage store History [3] in Boston which did the same thing, albeit their's were far more well-thought out.

I only have my travelling clothes with me but thankfully none of them are in the 'just a rubbish t-shirt' category so there's SOMETHING that can be said about them, so I gave my idea a bit of a practise run.  I'll leave you to separate the facts from the fiction...
