Rivers Clothing Co. certainly understand their role in consumer society- providing distressed wives and daughters somewhere to turn when the menfolk in their lives couldn't care less what they look like. Rivers, if my father is anything to go on, provides clothes which satisfy your average aussie dagg's desires for comfort and not looking too good, while providing for women a man with whom it is not mortifying to be seen.

Their Father's Day posters in the window of the Mid City Centre store read

If He Really Loves You, He'll Wear Whatever You Give Him.
