Interview with Lily and Dawn

JM: What clothes could you have brought in to wear in the jail (underwear, socks, etc.)?
Lily: the county blues
Dawn: I was able to wear my socks, underwear. you are able to keep your bra however if it is a wired bra the wire has to be cut out of the bra.

JM: If you had a set uniform, what did it look like? Please be specific about each piece of clothing issued to you.
Lily: no
Dawn: I was given a blue uniform. the top was a t shirt and pants. The material was thick so it kept me warm. they allowed us to wear long johns as well. you had to order those from the commissary.

JM: Were there any assigned clothes in high demand that an inmate should look for when getting clothing assigned?
Lily: no
Dawn: No they usually had every one's specific size and there were no problems. of course the trustee's wore the same style but in orange.

JM: Was the clothing different between men and women?
Lily: no
Dawn: The styles were the same however the men i saw wore a dark green.
