In 1886, X invited a wealthy banker and his wife for dinner at his estate. Because the banker was not sure about the dressing etiquettes, he directly sought X's advice. X sent him to a noted tailor and had him design a special dress for him, and the banker attended the dinner in that dress. On his return to home, he chose to wear the same dress to a local club Y to show off. The dress grew very popular there and has remained so ever since, and now is more popularly known by the name of the club. Give me X and Y and of course the attire we are talking about.

X was a good student, an alumnus of Stanford Graduate School of Business. One fine day in 1977, he went out shopping for his wife. But he was thoroughly embarrassed when he tried to buy lingerie for his wife at a department store. What did this inspire him to start?
