In 1912 Annie Wood Culver is offered financial backing to launch a clothing line with her husband Sean and her colleagues Maude and Edna. Leaving secure positions for an untested business gives the women creative control, but it also makes every design decision, delay and personal disagreement a threat to their shared future.
Their goal is clothing that is fashionable, practical and accessible to modern women rather than merely copied from elite dress. The enterprise tests marriage, friendship and the limits placed on female ambition. Through setbacks and new romances, the novel presents the American Dream as disciplined work sustained by cooperation, prayer and a willingness to use success for more than individual status.
