In this short video we see seamstresses working on heavy canvas for airplane wings. The question that was asked today was if the attire worn by the seamstresses normal work attire or are they dressing up for the filming of their work. http://www.boeing.com/history/video-series/index.page#.VdNbytV1emk.mailto Videos@Boeing: Laying the fabric: The Boeing seamstresses Laying the fabric: The Boeing seamstresses Discover the role Boeing seamstresses played in the early days of company and the pioneering spirit they stitched in history in the first installment of “The Boeing Archives Presents."
