Content of 'guilt'

Content of screen printed receipt:

POST-PURCHASE

- how much did the garment cost?
- where did the money come from?
- what is it for?

e.g. £100 from mum with love
£190 from food fund for party

WHAT WILL YOU GAIN?
- Nostalgia for garment - you will be reminded of the circumstances of purchase
- Value - being constantly reminded of the garments worth will help you to appreciate it
- Organisation - know what you've worn when so you dont wear the same thing to see the same group of people more than once and you can wear pieces bought for you by other people when you go to see them - garment management.

By embedding the guilt into a garment you are giving the garment a narrative: past, present, future.
