Sumergrade samples, photographs and clippings, 1977-1980
File — Box: Mixed k_18 (F), Folder: 6-7
Scope and Contents
Pauline Trigère and Lucie Porges designed fabrics of Kodel polyester and cotton featuring three patterns: "Vine and Trellis," "Vine," and "Trellis." The patterns were available in four colors: white on Trigère Red, brown, black, or blue. This fabric (of which samples are included in one folder) links the contents of both folders in this entry.
Using the fabric, Trigère designed bedspreads, comforters, draperies, shams, and decorative pillows for N. Sumergrade & Sons. In 1980, using the same fabric, Porges designed an umbrella, oversized tote bag, insulated cooler and quilted beach mat. These beach accessories were sold at Lord & Taylor. The folders contain photographs, advertisements and clippings of these non-apparel designs.
