Pink and Brown Plaid Dress
Pink and brown plaid long sleeve cotton dress. Sleeves very puffy at shoulder and taper to cuff. Gathered waist. Hooks in back. Letters imprinted on fabric on right cuff. Only the letter “P” is legible. Hand sewn. Probably fits a teenager. Also stored in Textile Box # T.2 with the dress is a brown fringed shawl with a bow in the upper center back; this appears to be the same color brown as the dress and may have been part of an outfit. The shawl is numbered 997.72.561.2.
