[Re: Making the costumes for the Rape of Lucretia]
Rudolf Bing writes, 17 July 1946, “...all of us here feel indebted to you, for the enormous help you have given us in the creation of all our costumes and all the accessories like wigs, shoes, jewellery, and indeed everything concerning that side of the production…”

“…Piper and the Producer and myself are aware that you have not only “carried out costume designs”, but that your ingenuity, ability and enthusiasm for the work has substantially improved these designs, and as a result the costumes.”

“Beyond that, it was a joy to work with you and I sincerely hope that we shall have you with us again for future productions.”
