News that the Cannes Film Festival has barred women from formal functions unless they are wearing high heels ("Birkenstocks, Gwyneth? Flip-flops, Meryl? Get outa here") reminded us of a day at Vancouver Life magazine when the manager insisted all male employees wear black or charcoal grey socks.
Then, to be sure his dictum was obeyed, he sent his secretary to check. It was a surprise to many of us to find this young woman crawling under desks to inspect men's ankles.
I believe one salesman was in danger of firing for wearing Argyles.
