You can't find anything in any of your many, many pockets.

We have layers and layers of pockets.

I have 24 pockets when I'm walking down the street.

And he drew this beautiful sort of map of all the pockets from outerwear to underwear that men tend to have.

And he made exactly your point, which is, if I actually use them, it would be so bulky.

This is silly.

So yes, I take your point.

The pockets aren't always so functional, especially if they're sort of too bulgy.

Of course, this has also been the reason that women's wearers thought not to have pockets, because you want to have a sleek silhouette.

There's a wonderful story about the American women's rights advocate Elizabeth Cady Stanton.

And she, in 1895, writes this letter to a New York newspaper.

And in it, she recounts her experience with her dressmaker.

And she really wants a pocket, Stanton does.

And her dressmaker says, no, no, I can't include a pocket.

A pocket would bold you out just awful.

And Stanton thinks she's won her argument, but she hasn't.

And a couple of weeks later, she receives the dress.

It has not a single pocket.

And the dressmaker wins the day.

Beauty trumps function in this case.
