From the 1 September, 1954 Vogue- The American shirt suit: its gentle new look.

'Ease and casualness of a gentle new brand (and gentleness is the brand mark of the autumn collections): the shirt suit handled now with white doeskin gloves, a white satin bodice, a back-set cap of crushed white velvet. The look at dinner- smart, attractive, unforced: nothing high pressure about it. The Ben Zuckerman suit (its jacket satin-lined) in Forstmann wool doeskin, and the bodice, both, at Saks Fifth Avenue.'
