Plot Overview

Dobie launches a runway offensive versus wealthy, better-dressed hunk Milton Armitage, his competitor for luscious teen gold-digger Thalia Menninger. When Dobie's grocer father Herbert T. Gillis refuses to finance a clothing binge, Dobie talks a local haberdasher into letting Dobie secretly model the shop's best outfits, to promote the store's business, plus counter Maynard & The Beat Generation's anti-fashion values, which challenges 50's Mad Men more.
