From Ian Fleming's "Moonraker"
CHAPTER 11
(Of Gala Brand)
Her rather severe evening dress was in charcoal black grosgrain with full sleeves that came below the elbow. The wrap-over bodice just showed the swell of her breasts, which were as splendid as Bond had guessed from her measurements on her record sheet. At the point of the vee there was a bright blue cameo brooch, a Tassie intaglio, Bond guessed, cheap but imaginative. She wore no other jewelry except a half-hoop of small diamonds on her engagement finger. Apart from the warm rouge on her lips, she word no make-up and her nails were square-cut with a natural polish.
