From Vogue, 1 March 1955- The Shirt-Sleeve Suit, as sold at Bonwit Teller. 'New casual elegance done in a quite formal worsted black or navy pin dot white stripe; with easy sleeves, big collar, a fresh big bow. By Ben Zuckerman. Misses sizes 165.00.' This suit has decorative buttons at the hip, a nipped waist, cuffs and the collar is so wide it spans the shoulders. Such a feminine suit, made more so by the big bow at the neckline.
