Scope and content
Has been through 45 years of Vogue and Chanel and has had everything photostated. Discusses the feeling of "white and cleanliness" in Chanel, and the poor record of Chanel in Vogue. Knows the "scarlet jersey" and the "wonderful skirt with the pockets" so well having worn them herself. Has quite a few of the bracelets, emeralds, rubies and pearls at home. Is just writing this in case it is any help to Beaton. He cannot imagine how excited she is.
