Striped Robe

Abstract

The idea for the kaftan-like garment, titled Striped Robe, is the result of a presentation given by the designers at Duke University’s Nasher Museum in Durham NC, in conjunction with “Collecting Matisse and Modern Masters: The Cone sisters of Baltimore”. In fall of 2012, the codesigners were invited to give a presentation on the relationship between textile heiresses Claribel and Etta Cone, and the sisters’ patronage of Matisse and other emerging artists during the first half of the twentieth century.
