Personal Synopsis

A tame story that doesn’t involve murder but clothes. This is an interesting twist to the crime fiction television storyline that was prevalent in the late 60’s early 70’s.In this story, the fashion designer, who seems guilty herself, is placed in a whodunnit that involves the typical undercutting by the fashion elites, is definitely a new story for me. I did enjoy the episode for its simplicity however it is likely realistic to believe that this sort of crime has and still exists today.
