Santa doesn't approve of your Slip.

If only she had worn a Mary Barron slip she'd still be on Santa's Good List. But instead she's committed a social error! Don't make the same mistake. "...just the good behavior of perfect design".

Helen Walker wearing Jiminy - 1944

Here's a little about Helen Walker. She's in "Luscious California Colors" of Jiminy which seems to have faded into history. As has the Campus Modes Sportswear shop, which I'm sure was a stylish place in 1944. Do any of you know more about what happened to it? Or to Jiminy?

"Bright Star For Her Christmas Tree" - Charm Magazine 1944

I tried to find out more about this illustrator, Wilena. All I found were some other ads with her distinctive style, but nothing about the artist herself. Do you have more information?
