A daring (for its time) evening suit originally worn by Marlene Dietrich in the 1930's and designed by Travis Banton. As seen in the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, Massachusetts as part of its exhibition, Gender Bending Fashion. This exhibition "features more than 60 boundary-pushing contemporary designs alongside dozens of 20th-century garments and photographs, illustrating a rich history of individuals disrupting, blurring and seeking to transcend a traditional division between men’s and women’s clothing over the last 100 years." www.mfa.org/news/gender-bending-fashion The Sunday Challenge: Things that cross over. For purists, there is always the bow tie. A20190324 113205
