1951 Mademoiselle's Merit Award in Fashion
Mademoiselle's citation declared that Jeanne Campbell designer
of Loomtogs "has proved by her own ingenuity that high fashion
and low prices can be synonymous." Concluding that "with
her inventive denims (June Mlle), her combination of fabrics
like organdy and jersey, her far-ahead use of tapered pants,
really full skirts and 'glamour separates', she has endeared
herself to all devotees of young, easy casualness."
