Anna and Laura Tirocchi built their dressmaking business in Providence, Rhode Island, and maintained a passion for beauty and excellence which is expressed in the remarkable garments they produced. Their story is intertwined with those of their family, workers, and clients, and it parallels the history of twentieth century fashion, art, and design.
