In the August 24 "Fashions of the Times," supplement to The New York Times, celebrities were asked to talk about their best-loved clothes. Wendy Wasserstein, the award-wining, non-Dartmouth playwright responded, "I have a triple extra-large Dartmouth sweatshirt that would fit a brontosaurus for Winter Carnival weekend. The neck and arms are frayed from a terrible habit of nibbling nervously on my clothes. I pretend it was a gift from a long-ago fraternity suitor, but I bought it myself from the Dartmouth Co-op when I decided around ten years ago to hide in Hanover in order to write. At first I wore it only over a Lanz flannel nightgown, my other official stay-at-home writing gear. But, over the years, I've realized it works both a la carte or over any ensemble..."

Wendy Wasserstein made a Dartmouth sweatshirt a fashion statement.
