Pockets have become embedded in the dress code of the modern world. They can be spotted everywhere; in the
streets, in schools, at parties. On shirts, blouses, skirts, pants, shorts and aprons. They have become so common that
some even consider them insignificant. They however are mistaken. Pockets are not only decorative but they are
functional. Since they are prominent on garments, they must be constructed carefully. This project seeks to showcase
a few of the various types of pockets and to highlight how they can be used to enhance nightwear.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
I would like to extend thanks to my teacher Mrs. Garib, my parents, friends and well-wishers who inspired me and
helped me to complete this project. Most of all I would like to thank God who makes everything just a little better.
