Our take on a great Belgian style deserves a great Belgian story, and you've probably never heard this one. The Comet Line is a famous escape line that operated between 1941 and 1944 during World War II. It was the brainchild of a 24-year-old Belgium woman, André de Jongh (known as Dédée), a young nurse who, at the outbreak of World War II, found herself nursing Allied soldiers and pilots shot down and stranded behind enemy lines. It was so named because of the speed needed to whisk stranded airmen through occupied France and Belgium to safety. Hundreds of lives were saved, and Comet is a small tribute to their efforts.
