I've modeled this dress before, this time with my new eye glasses. I love wearing it because it is so 1950's with the ultra feminine girly qualities of this dress. I also do lots of swishing as that is what the petticoats are for. Underneath I wear a longline bra and a girdle. Bra straps show, I didn't get around to attaching transparent straps. The video I added background of a reception dinner arrangement.
Some years ago I bought this prom dress by Ellyanna from Simple Elegance, probably one of my best investments. Particularly in this day where difficult to find such as today's fashion trends are more about male repelling fashions. I wear this dress because it feels wonderful and I believe it attracts men. I carry the purse as I like to think there are some men who would love to date an older CD in a 1950s style prom queen dress.
I wear the faux fur and long gloves because that's what those women of the 1950s wore.

In an early interview, Frank said, “I did try to photograph the richer people, the upper-class people. But it was very hard to get to them because those people are in their homes. They are away from the viewer. They are away from the public view. You can’t get into their country clubs.”
