Before I even moved back to NYC, I made—from a WilliWear Butterick pattern—a pair of jodhpurs with a wide, wrapped waistband. I did them in magenta chintz! Then, when I lived in the East Village, someone directed me to THE WilliWear source—an Indian clothing store called the Dress Shoppe on 9th Street, where I met the lovely (recently deceased) Goyal and bought a WilliWear black ankle-length jumpsuit. I wore it for years with Norma Kamali socks (from Daffy’s when they were in Elizabeth, NJ) and my orthopedic, Cuban-heeled, lace-up peep-toe grannies ($10 from Eneslow). Those were the days.
