Résumé : The brightly colored, playful prints of Lilly Pulitzer's clothing were a staple of
American fashion in the 1960s, '70s, and '80s--worn by members of society from Palm
Beach to Nantucket, actresses, models, and stylish housewives. One could always spot
a Lilly with its undeniable characteristics: clean, comfortable lines; bright and
vivid colors; and the fantastical design of its fabrics. Whether at the beach or a
cocktail party, these simple shifts for women and girls and jackets and trousers for
the gents were a preppy rite of passage. The majority of Pulitzer's fabric designs
from 1962 through 1985 were based on artwork by Key West-based artist Suzie Zuzek.
These designs--monkeys sipping martinis, dancing flowers, colorful seashells, op-art
geometrics--were all the rage and attracted the eye of such ladies as Jackie Kennedy,
Happy Rockefeller, and Dina Merrill. This book--which is a treasure trove of the iconic
prints and contextualizes the purely American label--is a must-have for the libraries
of those who love fashion and social history. Exhibition: Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian
