all in the family.....

thought i would share a couple

more wedding dresses w/you today...

 my mother's wedding dress...

early 40s ecru silk satin....

sweetheart neckline...long pointed sleeves...

tiny covered buttons all the way down the

back..and..real ones...no snaps behind

these....

ruching on the bodice.....simply elegant...and...

once again...a teeny tiny waist.....

now here i am in the 90s when i first

opened fannie rose....

the same reporter who did an article on 

runaround sue's

came and did an article for 

fannie rose's opening...

i am wearing a silk 1920's wedding dress...

along w/my catherine d's hat and

pearls...

let me say...1920s dresses in this

style ran large-ish  unlike most

period garb...

which enabled me to fit

into it...not sure i would

be able to today...nearly

20 years later...

well...that's the journey for today...

hoping to dig out some more

fashions to share w/you 

all...

be well...

warmly........susan
