Reading and Writing · Information and Ideas · Easy · Answer it here, explanation included.
American fashion designer Patrick Kelly was known for his love of colorful buttons. Many of his signature dresses feature bold assortments of buttons throughout the garment. In a paper, a fashion design student claims that Kelly’s use of buttons as decoration was inspired by his childhood observations of the styles and actions of the women in his family.
Which quotation from a work by a historian would be the most effective evidence for the student to include in support of this claim?
ExplanationShow
Choice C is the best answer. This quotation draws a direct connection between the use of buttons and Kelly’s stylish female relatives.
Choice A is incorrect. This choice mentions Kelly’s use of buttons, but it doesn’t connect that design choice to the influence of women in Kelly’s family. Choice B is incorrect. This choice discusses how other designers were inspired by Kelly, which doesn’t provide evidence that Kelly was inspired by his family. Choice D is incorrect. While this choice does refer to fashionable women in Kelly’s family, it doesn’t connect their influence to Kelly’s use of buttons.
