The Dress

Overview

While spending the day at his grandfather’s, Jordan’s eye catches a fragment of green cotton trapped in between the doors of a closet. When he opens the closet, he is mesmerized by a beautiful green dress. He puts on the dress. He feels empowered by this new look, but his grandpa comes in only to crush his moment of happiness. He lectures Jordan that dresses are only for girls and goes to take it off of him, but in the midst of the altercation, he tears the fabric.
