I had the pleasure of writing about McCall’s interwar couture patterns for the upcoming Heritage issue of Selvedge Magazine.
With thanks to Cécile Lambert and Elizabeth Randolph, Collections Manager of the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
Founded in 2004, Selvedge is a bimonthly that explores the history, future, politics, and aesthetics of textiles.
