Gayle Carline

This picture was badly mangled, but I thought the fashions were fascinating. Whatever year this was, it was clearly not a good year for women. The shapeless folds of the dresses make them all look like cookie jars, and what is with those enormous black bows on the side of their heads? Isn't the drill-bit hairstyle bad enough? A restorer might be able to make the picture look better, but nothing is going to make these women look better!

Looks like we're getting closer to the 20's. Our girls seem to be as flirty as the flappers, showing off a little ankle. The three on the right seem to be waving a broom; it looks like they're either going to hit the lady with the hat or fling it at the photographer. Flirty, indeed - these girls are downright spunky!
