Hacking jacket by Tailoring for Women
A look at the evolution of smart clothes.

The increase in the number of women in high profile professional jobs has led to a revival in women鈥檚 tailoring -听as seen听on the likes of Hilary Clinton and Angela Merkel. So how is tailoring for women different to men鈥檚 tailoring? When did tailoring for women start? And what should we look for听when buying tailored clothes? Jenni talks to Carol Alayne from 'Tailoring for Women' and Professor of Dress and Textile history at听University of Brighton, Lou Taylor.
