Description: What Was The Significance Of The International Ladies Garment Workers Union? The International Ladies Garment Workers Union (ILGWU) held significant importance in the history of labor rights and workers conditions in the United States, particularly within the garment industry. The most popular union label found in vintage clothing is from the International Ladies Garment Workers Union (ILGWU). Vintage clothing pickers and sellers often use ILGWU clothing labels to help identify the general era a piece of clothing was made because the union tags design, which has changed eight times since 1900, can help narrow the garments age within a window of approximately 10 to 20 years.
