Katy Keene again
Many thanks to Joy, who sent this in from a July 1960 issue of Katy Keene.
I admit to more than a sneaking suspicion that I am a Bertha! I mean, the polka dots alone are a dead giveaway! Oh, well, if everyone were always tasteful how boring the world would be.

I can't help but wonder about Leon De Lap of Wichita Kansas. Was Leon a little boy, unashamed of his love of fashion? A grown man who contributed dress designs to a little girl's comic book? A little girl with an unusual name?

I don't see you as a Bertha at all. Your stuff may be bright but it works together.

It is sheer irony that an ungainly, unconventional girl should become one of the leading fashion mavens of the 20th century. Diana Vreeland (1906-89) was fashion editor at Harper's Bazaar, editor in chief at Vogue, and finally special consultant to the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute. An unerring force in the fashion world from the Forties through the Seventies, Vreeland dictated style and fashion trends. She was eccentric and demanding, but in fashion she was always right:
"I'm a great believer in vulgarity. Like a dash of paprika, we all need a splash of bad taste. No taste is what I'm against."
