 Zip It 

 

.

 Roll of 50m zipper, dimensions variable 2025 



A particular shade of pink—a pink I remember from my childhood in the 1970s—one that signified femininity in clothing and its wearer. The impossibility of the zipper on the back of women's clothing required Houdini-like moves, extra-long arms, or the ribbon trick. But in reality, someone else was always meant to (help) undress you.
