Easter Morning 1959
Never mind that as a Catholic child in the 1960s I thought that The Robe was a spiritual documentary on the Resurrection; Easter was a serious fashion event.
The Easter outfit was everything.
All new; the dress, coat, matching hat, purse, white gloves and all important shoes (which ideally clicked when you walked) were as important as any Christmas present, for sure.
I am glad that we don't worship that way anymore,
but I do miss the fashion show.
Happy Easter!

Adorable! Hope your day was great!
Happy Easter, Colleen!
The pink gloves are kinda awesome! But they all look miserable!
I remember our Easter parade, as a Methodist too. I loved the little white gloves, and the big decision... white or black patent leather shoes?
Happy Easter to you too! I hope you had a great day!
As children we always got new dresses for Easter, as well as tiny little bags and shoes. Hope your Easter was wonderful!
