Cher was part Native American. The costume is based on Native American dress. It includes a huge headdress with feathers.
Other costumes include punkish jeans and a tee-shirt from Sonic Youth’s Kim Gordon. There is also a very nineteen-sixties looking dress from Mary Wilson of the Supremes. The dress is made of yellow and green teardrop shaped plastic pieces.
But it was famous footwear that drew two young women to the show. Twenty-six year old Tatiana from Germany had one last day of her vacation in the United States. She saw a poster for “Women Who Rock” featuring Patti Smith.
TATIANA: “First of all, I love Patti Smith. I adore her. And I saw her shoes, her boots, in the metro station, on the paper.”

So, Tatiana’s cousin Jenny decided to bring her to the show.
JENNY: “I know this is something she would enjoy. We’ve been listening to this kind of music years on. So, it’s something we enjoy to do together.”
Jenny said she could not pick a favorite performer at the show.
JENNY: “There are things I like and I don’t like about each of the artists. I like Debby Harry, Janis Joplin and Joni Mitchell. I did enjoy seeing some of the really early blues singers like Billie Holiday.”

JUNE SIMMS: The National Museum of Women in the Arts will close “Women Who Rock: Vision, Power, Passion” in early January. The show then travels to another city.
