    Waiting for this one!! I was a fashion buyer (Jr dresses) during the late seventies and early eighties, for a chain of department stores in the Northeast. We
    got on the bus 6am every Tuesday and headed for Manhattan, 1400 block of Broadway for the showrooms. The women, and some men, were designing and sewing behind the showrooms. Racks of clothes were pushed up and down the streets of "the garment district".
    The Jack Lemmon film Save The Tiger gave a good glimpse of that world.

    Boy this was quite something!!
    It did make me flinch that Mr Tessler violated the model's boundaries, reaching into her underarm area with a weird dominion, glee and aggressiveness.
    To me, she looked stricken. That's an improvement at least: that we women feel our bodies are ours.

      I noticed that too. She rightfully looked "stricken". That action angered me, and should not have been accepted, even in 1963.

    When they talk about money one dollar was equal to twenty five dollars today so keep that in mind!

      One dollar in 1963 would be equal to $10.09 in 2024 not $25.00.
