6 Decades of Stripes Coveralls

These coveralls were the final piece of my undergraduate thesis. They were created to culminate my investigation into the use of stripes in 20th century American textiles. I analyzed Sears Wish Book Catalogs from the years 1937, 1947, 1957, 1968, 1977, and 1988 to trace and archive trends in striped clothing. I chose my favorite striped garment from each decade and made a canvas screen print in response, which was then sewn into the coveralls. The stripes and decades can be read chronological from top to bottom.

*Scrap Fabric Friday was a tradition I instilled during my last semester of undergraduate studies; I would come to the studio every Friday and make something from scrap fabrics—few were wins, most were not.
