Washing Windows – Bridget Sullivan

Unisex

Just Washing Windows. Nothing to See Here. Wherever You Are.

Step quietly into true crime legend with the Washing Windows – Bridget Sullivan Tee from Westport Harbor—a historical nod to the infamous Borden murders and the one woman who claimed she saw nothing... because she was too busy scrubbing the glass. Soft, stylish, and slightly haunted, this shirt is a tongue-in-cheek tribute to the housemaid who may have known more than she let on—or maybe she really was just washing the windows.

Let the Silence Speak Volumes

On the morning of August 4, 1892, in Fall River, Massachusetts, Andrew and Abby Borden were found brutally murdered in their home. While the world fixated on Lizzie Borden, the family’s maid—Bridget Sullivan—became an unexpected figure in the background. Bridget testified that she had been ordered to clean the windows despite the sweltering heat and had been outside when the murders occurred. Exhausted, she went to her attic bedroom to rest and later claimed she neither saw nor heard anything unusual.

This shirt plays on that eerie moment in history—a wink to those days when all you want to do is mind your business, wash your windows, and not get pulled into the chaos around you.

A True Crime Twist

Made from ultra-soft combed and ring-spun cotton, the Washing Windows Tee is as breathable as it is mysterious. It’s perfect for anyone who appreciates a dash of historical darkness with their laid-back look. Whether you’re a Fall River history buff, a true crime junkie, or just someone who’s not in the mood for small talk, this shirt says it all—without saying too much.
