I like how girls do things now like skirts and tops - so you can at least separate the parts and recombine them so the outfits aren't a total loss.I remember Joan had a closet full of bridesmaid dresses - a "dress up" treasure trove if there ever was one. I especially remember an emerald green silk sheath dress - I wanted to be old enough to wear it with panache - I never was at a point where I would have done it justice - but then again I used to imagine being Miss America!!
And below are the dresses from Joy's wedding, also in 1966. They were velvet and crepe on the bottom. That dress was a total loss - I didn't like the color! The things we do for our friends!
And Joy ended up divorcing Dale, so all those lovely studio shots are probably gathering dust in some basement! (This is obviously not a studio shot!!)
