Nefa menstrual napkins
(damesverband) ad,
the Netherlands, Feb. 20, 1954,
magazine unknown
Why does the ad feature the
dress? It could be that after the
deprivations of the Second World
War Dutch women wanted to see
fashionable dresses even if they
couldn't afford them, as the ad
says. And maybe to change the
subject from menstruation.

Dutch contributor)
I thank the generous Dutch
contributor for this ad and many
other items on this site!

My translation:
In one word: magnificent!
Extraordinarily chic is this
black dress, completely
decorated with braids and
ruffled bows. Decidely for very
big occasions! And the flowered
earrings are very modern.
Not every woman can afford such
a creation. But she can indeed
be perfectly groomed with the
ideal menstrual pad with the new
inventionthat keeps the napkin
flat. . . .
Now worth double [?]
