Elizabeth Evitts Dickinson: The Hidden History of Claire McCardell

Designer Claire McCardell forever changed fashion and, most important, the lives of women. She shattered cultural norms around women’s clothes, and today much of what we wear traces back to her ingenious, rebellious mind. Author Elizabeth Evitts Dickinson reveals how McCardell built an empire at a time when women rarely made the upper echelons of business. At its core, McCardell’s story is about our right to choose how we dress—and our right to choose how we live.
