While I was reordering material in my research files I came across a piece I wrote a few years ago on Nina Piscopo D'Amore (1917-1994), a second-generation Italian American who designed a collection of house-robes as her graduating project entitled The Art of Lounging (1939).
The collection is composed of 11 fashion plates with descriptions and fabric samples for each design and an essay that accompanies the designs. It was such a pleasure to dig again into Nina Piscopo's work. Although my essay is still unpublished I wanted to share and resurrect my dormant text here.
