A Long Line of Presentation

I ran into Rose near central park this past weekend.She shared some of the knowledge that she has acquired over the past 79 years. Rose told me, " There was always a long line of presentation. Not one item should outdo another. The pieces should compliment one another, to create one complete picture. This is how it used to be,there was an elegance before. We were working towards the face, everything was meant to flatter the face."

When I asked her why she wears gloves, she simply responded," To protect my hands."

Old Hollywood

I met this stunning woman at a sample sale party for milliner Ellen Christine. She looks as if she could have stepped right out of one of the Old Hollywood movies I used to watch with my grandmother. She is elegant and charming and I hope to photograph her again. By the way Linda's beautiful suit was made by Andrea Fisher, whose designs are featured at Lark Boutique in Lacrosse, WI.
