[Italian Fortnights advertisement]

Italian Fornights advertisement from Neiman-Marcus, depicting a woman descending down a staircase. The advertisement reads, "L'Alta Moda Italiana. In inglese - Italy's high fashion! To verify that all Roman roads lead to Neiman-Marcus, Alitalia flew in a glittering, star-studded constellation of celebrities, including a galaxy of eminent couturiers and the seven very top mannequins of Rome. Elegante? Such a glamorous cast has never before convened! In honor of our Fornights, L'Alta Moda will be viewed in all its continental splendor tomorrow at a special luncheon and fashion show benefiting Italy's Famous Boys' Town, II vestiario (new shapes, hats, shoes, every current fashion) will parade the runway - and after the show, you can shop for the same magnificence right here at N-M. The street where we live may not be Via Condotti, but its excitement is all here! Neiman-Marcus."

[Galleria Italiana! advertisement]

Galleria Italiana! - Italian Fornights - Neiman-Marcus advertisement for glassware. The advertisement reads, "Bursting forth in our Galleries, a volcanic eruption of Italy and its arts and crafts. From the most northern hill provinces, to the coastal towns of the south we've brought a myriad of items to transform our loggia into a shopper's paradise. The incomparable glass of Venice, shown, is but the beginning. Baskets, burlap crafts and mother-of-pearl from Sardinia. From Capacci and Lucerni, one-of-a-kind ceramics. An unprecedented collection of enamelware from De Poli (including a giant-size and fabulous rooster!). Table lace and linens from Venice. Florentine silver, Rosa Antica, a fine Italian earthenware made just for our Fornights. Sicilian puppets. Venetian crystals. Sicilian wood carvings. And more. All are evidence that under our one roof is the greatest assemblage of Italian goods, ever, in the Southwest. So we say, benvenuto and good shopping during our great Italian Fornights. At Preston Center, or Galleria Italiana, fourth floor, downtown. Neiman-Marcus."
