Lot Essay

The present lot was likely worn for a live performance of 'She Works Hard for the Money', the title track of Summer's eleventh studio album released in 1983. The single would go on to reach number three on the Billboard Hot 100, and stay as number one for three weeks on the Billboard R&B singles chart.
