Iconic 1960’s garments, from mini skirts to optical art, are on display at the Emily Reynolds Historic Costume Collection until June 15.
According to Ann Braaten, curator of the collection, North Dakotan women once wore the garments featured. One of the most notable garments is the handmade McCarthy mini dress worn by Jane Sinner, North Dakota’s first lady from 1985 to 1992, at the 1968 Democratic National Convention.
The collection is located on the fourth floor of the Katherine Kilbourne Burgum Family Life Center. Tours of the collection are available Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
