a lovely dress, part 2

here's my aunt leona as a bridesmaid in my parents' wedding more than 50 years ago! she's wearing the vintage dress i'm planning to wear for a costume party later this month.

isn't it fabulous? and so well preserved!

my mom tells me at the time the dress was a little bit controversial among some, because it was both sleeveless (cap sleeve) and had a slight v-neck in the back.

racy!
