Working Girls

What are you going to wear to work tomorrow? You don't know, you'll have to see what's clean, you have a meeting but also it's meant to be quite a warm day, Conference Room B is a sauna at the best of times, you'd rather not get visibly sweaty, is a tank top going to be appropriate or is it just too much boob, why is this always so difficult and stressful, you wish we hadn't asked. This week, D & G explore the complex and exhausting world of ladies workwear, with help from listeners.   LINKS FROM THE POD: Vanity Fair | Rachel Bloom's "Lady Boss" Video Women's dress expectations in academia (links via Asad): The Guardian | Tenure She Wrote Tess Holliday on Instagram Sexist and outdated office heating formulas (links via Asad): NYTimes | New Republic   Artwork by @vannvann
