Dressed: The History of Fashion
Arts:Fashion & Beauty
This week, we are joined by Rebecca Seaver, the Director of Museum & Archive Services for Dolly Parton, and the person responsible for the curated selection of special pieces on view in Dolly's recently published memoir Behind the Seams: My Life in Rhinestones. And thanks to the book's audio companion, we even hear from Dolly herself!
A special thank you to Rebecca and the Penguin Random House Audio team for the sound bytes featured in today's episode!
