That's all lovely, but how about HUGE mistakes? I don't recall 1st season, but in the 2nd Betty wears a front zip twice! Think track pants and the shorts in the Caddy episode. Front zips didn't exist until the end of the sixties, if, so ask your mother next time.

I think you are right, lorelei, I remember my mom's capri's (ski pants, whatever---the "Laura Petrie" slim slacks women started to wear then) all had side zips!
