Worn with jacket (Object ID #2010.11.01.b) to form two piece ensemble.

Note from Sister Aloyse Hessburg: "Blue knit pile fabric by Borg Textile Group, a Wisconsin industry. They challenged the senior class in 1970 to create garments 'for a winter evening' using their fabric. Christee selected this fabric (at that time the most flexible of their line) and used the silk fabric bodice and lining of silk crepe. The fur closure hooks were the only available on short notice. (Industry would have had time to get correct size and color.) In a way - industry and Mount Mary College were promoting the possibility of using Borg Textiles to the Wisconsin public."]]> This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License.]]> Two piece evening ensemble (Object ID #2010.11.01.ab)]]> View 360 Image in New Window]]> Mount Mary Student and School Sisters of Notre Dame (SSND) Designs exhibit]]>
