Verbclothes
From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A feature of all modern human societies is the wearing of clothing, a category encompassing a wide variety of materials that cover the body. The primary purpose of clothing is functional, as a protection from the elements. Clothes also enhance safety during hazardous activities such as hiking and cooking, by providing a barrier between the skin and the environment. Further, clothes provide a hygienic barrier, keeping toxins away from the body and limiting the transmission of germs. Clothing performs important social and cultural functions. A uniform, for example, may identify civil authority figures, such as police and army personnel, or it may identify team, group or political affiliations. In many societies, norms about clothing reflect standards of modesty, religion, gender, and social status. Clothing may also function as a form of adornment and an expression of personal taste or style. Throughout history, many materials have been used for clothes. Materials have ranged from leather and furs, to weaved and woven materials, to elaborate and exotic natural and synthetic fabrics. Recent scientific research estimates that humans have been wearing clothing for as long as 650,000 years. Others claim that clothing probably did not originate until the Neolithic Age (the "New Stone Age"). Articles carried rather than worn (such as purses), worn on a single part of the body and easily removed (scarves), worn purely for adornment (jewellery), or those that serve a function other than protection (eyeglasses), are normally considered accessories rather than clothing.

Even IF your clothes got as far as the children you intend them for you can rest assured that they will almost immediately be stolen from them by the racketeers out there for sale elsewhere. It really ISN'T worth your good intentions. You'd even be better tearing them up and making draught excluders to give to the old people of our own country ! ! !

I wish to sell my clothes here in the local market. I would appreciate any advice on how to sell the clothes to shops and then collecting the cheques from the sales they make. However, from past experience they never give full payment of sold clothes until we collect all stock from the shop, how do I over come this problem? Asked by d_bond74 - Mon Jun 16 06:41:48 2008 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments A. Most shop owner are willing to take in consignment provided yours design are same as their target group. You probably cant put funky t-shirt on their rack if they are selling executive suit. Make agreement with them that you will do a stock check & collect payment which ever is sold at the end of the month. Back yourself with your company agreement form, state quatity for them to sign & chop. When you doing consignment with new shop owner just put some to test out. There are really few bunch of unethical businessman out there, that alway drag payment or dont even pay. Dont ever do business with them again no matter what they offer. Gd luck business need time to test out & grow. : Answered by seedace - Mon Jun 16 08:44:23 2008 What size clothes should I buy my 6 foot 5 boyfriend?
