Catherine Robertson Claiborne chose this goddess-like beaded silk chiffon and silk crepe evening gown to attend a farewell dinner honoring her father, Walter S. Robertson (1893–1970), for his service as the United States Assistant Secretary of State for Far Eastern Affairs (1953–1959). Mrs. Claiborne serves on the boards of the Richmond Ballet and the Virginia Opera and works to honor the historic and heroic contributions of women through the Virginia Women’s Monument Commission.
