In December 1940, the magazine Le Petit Echo de la mode wrote: "The year about to begin, gives us hope that it will see the return of our prisoners, that thought helps us to live as if they were present. The house waits in good order. Similarly large and small, always coquettishly dressed, are ready to receive them."
