Excerpt:
“Some women have a talent for selecting costumes that always look smart, that keep new through hard wear. These women appraise clothes as investments. They know that a garment is only as good as its fabric. In woolens, they look for the name Forstmann because it stands for supreme quality and style leadership.”
This is a 85 yr. old original vintage ad removed from a 1938 publication and is not a reproduction of any kind.
