If you missed it, it's a basic black similar to many others, but instead of "Mercury" or "Wizard" or some such it says "Rodney". Don't you wonder how these ideas get started?! I can just hear some prim 1950's woman telling her family she's off to play with Rodney, maybe while her husband is out at a bar called "The Library".
Maybe if someone asked her where she got her dress she could say 'Rodney made it' or 'it was custom sewn by Rodney.'
