Jacob Dahlgren is known for his love/obsession with stripes (check out this article for more). Today, he was taking photos of office staff who were wearing striped clothing. In anticipation of the opening of Jacob Dahlgren: Forward, Back, Right, Left at the Henry this weekend, I decided to do a Collections Search on “stripes” — perhaps the artist (and you!) will enjoy and be inspired by some offerings from the Henry’s Costume and Textile Collection:

Apron | Tibeten plain weave

Blanket | Twill weave, wool, 1800

Bag | Indian plain weave and wood, 1954

Scarf | Marimekko knitted wool, 1986

Blouse for dress | Givenchy Plain weave; Braided, machine
Cotton with lurex, 1980-1983
