“ The pleats stitched down below the hips, then released like a fan.”  Harpers Bazaar , April 1947
From April 1947,  Harper’s Bazaar : “ [It] is the  essence of femininity . . .  fitted tightly to the body and buttoned from neck to  wasp waist . . . . Skirts are tremendously full, and from ten to twelve inches from the ground.  Yards and yards of material  swing and swirl because pleats are hand–pressed and flare to the hem.…  Inside the pleated skirts are  padded, stiffened yet perfectly comfortable , and wonderful for women with small waists, large hips.  In the house of Dior, French draping met its death—it was vanquished by pleats and under-padding. ”
Pauline Trigere, Diana Vreeland (editor of Vogue); and Nancy White (of  Harper’s Bazaar ) 1964.  Nancy White, 1956  Good Housekeeping
“ Although the clothes you see on  Good Housekeeping ’s pages are the kind that set you dreaming, the  dreams are the kind that can come true .  For with all their flattering distinction, these clothes are sold in many stores and at  prices retailers call ‘popular’—virtues not always found in clothes you see featured as fashion news .” -- Brooks, Christopher. “One year and 350,000 yards ago.”  Good Housekeeping , May 1948.
