[It's up to the first poster to come up with a set up, and then each following post will either complete it or fill in the blank(s). And, as always, whoever posts the set up is certainly allowed to post their own completion/fill in as a follow up.]

Setup:
Daphne: Bramwell, I went and I talked to Magda the local gypsy about our marital problems and she said there was something missing from our marriage. I'm not exactly sure what she meant, but I think she might have been talking about...
-
... baguettes.
... table tennis.
... whist.
... teddy bear tea parties.
-
...the part where you pay for me with an Morgan horse and an six-month-old ass.

I don't know about Catherine but Angelique would have dismissed it as child's play.

([pointing-up] You know, I wouldn't have been the slightest bit surprised. Though perhaps we should all be extremely grateful that we never saw Sky that way!! [easter_grin])

Ohrbach's might have had a run on them. Well, if they marketed them to the proper demographic. [Happy Easter 2] [Happy Easter 2] [Happy Easter 2]

I know that Ohrbach's supplied the clothes for a lot of the NYC based soaps and game shows but I don't know of anyone who actually shopped there. My cousins who were buying fashions at the time shopped at two ends of the fashion spectrum. Some of them bought clothes at Saks and Bloomingdale's. Others at Bradlee's. When I inquired about Ohrbach's, I invariably got a blank stare.
-
(Considering that back in the '70s everything was polyester or a polyester blend, did it really matter where someone bought their clothes because the quality of fabric was seemingly all the same...
Back in the day I bought my clothes almost exclusively from a local business named Sawyers Campus Shop, which catered mostly to men raging from late teens through 20s and maybe a bit beyond. They must have loved when they saw me coming because I had a charge with them and would think nothing of spending over $100 when they had a sale. But then their sales were amazing because you could buy anything in the store for regular price and then get a similar item for only a penny.)
-
One of my cousins worked in Saks in NYC and for many years, all of my Christmas and birthday presents came from Saks. I was apparenly extremely well dressed for kindergarten but what I really wanted was toys. When I got into high school and beginning to appreciate clothes, that's when they started giving me toys. Sometimes you just can't win.
-
(The 7-0s was also when polyester started to be avoided and made fun of, like Herb Tarlek on WKRP...)
-
([pointing-up] Well, some polyester clothes were hideous and totally deserved to be made fun of. I have no idea what people were thinking!! [ghost_nowink])
-
There was a great scene on Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman where Mary said that she was saving her daughter's baby clothes. Because she didn't think that there would be real polyester when Heather grew up.
-
([pointing-up] And she was right. But whoa, what a way to get her grandchild off on the wrong foot!! [yikes])
-
I do wonder what kind of grandmother Mary Hartman would have made. And what kind of mother Heather Hartman would have made as well.
