At Least, Consider Some Spring Fashion Alternatives, Darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!






                                         Remember when we all used to gather, like this, for tea?  I have no doubt those days will someday return, and we all want to look our best when they do.


                                          But there are still some alternatives to be considered,  now.


                                          Cecil  Beaton was one of the great stage and screen costume designers; my personal favorite,  by the way.  But he was also a fabulous fashion designer.


                                            Granted, you have to be stick figured and to wear some of his creations.  Which is why, pan sexuality aside, I sometimes gaze at  my wardrobe, wishing I looked like Audrey Hepburn.  Who among us does, these days?  But why should we let that stop us?


                                              There are no Cecil  Beaton  fashion shops; either on Manhattan's Upper East Side, or even in  London.  Are there even fabric shops left in Manhattan, or  even  the outer boroughs?  Because, if there are, then one can pick out some fabrics,  and, with the aid of dress patterns, or, better yet, a good  dressmaker, then Beaton's styles can be replicated.

                                    This one is my favorite ,girls!!!!!!!!!!!!!   Imagine  me making  my triumphant  return to the St. Regis for tea--not unlike Dolly Levi returning  to the Harmonia Gardens.  And  to  look like  Lee Radziwill, besides!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                   How about a  gathering  like this,  girls??????????????????
                                           And wouldn't this be perfect for Easter, darlings?  Just eight days away!
                                             Or, how about these stunning ensembles?
                                        And, speaking of home decor, isn't this just the perfect drawing room?

                                            Or, how about this, to the next social gathering?  Hey, Passover is coming up. Why not wear this to your next ZOOM gathering?


                                             Cecil Beaton has done so much for us!   And he can continue to do so, even during this pandemic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
                            So, for those small social herd gatherings, ZOOM meetings,  or large, full scale parties; even if alone, and need to cheer yourself up, be sure to make your mark, with a Beaton  creation.  His sense of elegance is far too neglected, these days!

                              Hope this pictoral post gave you some hope,  dolls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
