Ensemble

Marcelle Julien

second quarter 20th century · cotton · Costume Institute

Marcelle Julien was an exclusive children's boutique, and the level of detail in this garment illustrates that exclusivity. This ensemble along with the dress, 2009.300.3367, was a matching set presumably for a brother and sister, which enhances its value.
