...heaven. "I wear Jax, Jax, Jax all day," cries best-dressed, lightweight Mrs. Loel Guinness. Audrey Hepburn wears nothing but Jax (and an occasional Givenchy). So do Marlene Dietrich, the Kennedy sisters, Natalie Wood, and Edgar Bergen's daughter Candice. Elizabeth Taylor is a shade too "buxom," says Hanson but she bought $3,000 worth of Jax clothes anyway last month.

...walked to the call desk and, to my chagrin, found that there was no buxom female to fumble through 10,000 cards before telling me my book wasn't in. "What's happened here?" I asked the male at the desk almost incoherently. He turned a little pale, and nodded toward a darkened, glass-walled room where "it" made its home...
