Dress

Not on view

This dress belonged to Juliette Geneva Hollenback (1881-1917), the youngest daughter of prominent financier and philanthropist John Welles Hollenback (1834-1923). Although the dress appears to be a scaled-down version of an adult's dress, the skirt is attached to the bodice and the closures are uncomplicated, making it easier to dress a child. The fiery color and simple materials are a portent of the woman Juliette would become: an active leader in settlement work.
