  4. How romantic those dresses were at that time. We are not dressed in very interesting clothes now unless we need them for our work, like models,or actors. I used to wear dresses or frocks, but now I only wear trousers. Have a great week.

  8. What a wonderful dress! I'm not sure I would want to wear one in the summer heat and humidity though.

  9. Lois, I have wondered how women survived in the summer heat back then and without air conditioning!
