What a lovely photo-still and moving at the same time. The ruffles on her dress give that silent sense of "snap"-you can "hear" the cloth pop! And, of course-wish I could do that:-). Andrea
these photographs exude the carefree, clean, sun-drenched essence of summer. they're exactly what i need to get through these last couple days of school. Thank you, sartorialist!
gosh, both those dresses are so gorgeous and spring-ey (and apparently your daughter is very springy teehee)! They inspire me to go out and buy a dress or two :b
I'm so happy that you covered the Jazz Age Lawn Party again! God willing I will make it there next summer. As for right now, I enjoy looking at all of your beautiful pictures – especially these. Vintage Gatsby-era clothes are the best!
What a picture of your daughter! The movement is great and the quality of the picture excellent! What's happening on this Island? Everybody seems to be wearing vintage clothes and having fun! I want to be part of it!
I love the color white for summertime; it's clean, elegant, and absolutely gorgeous. The top picture of the girl is so lovely! and I love the shot of your daughter, she looks so carefree and beautiful!
I'm so into all white right now. You must be mostly proud to share that shot :) Her muscles combined with the position of her body make her feel both strong and soft. :D Way to go!
i think your daughter should show off more often if her moves are so cool. And that picture is so great: shadow, movement in the dress, even her face looks great 8that movement can make your face look so stypid, she just pulls it off so well)
Fashion is fleeting, but style is forever. I simply cant understand how we went from this to what we have now. Cant grasp it. My wife and I wear vintage all the time. We make our own clothes from vintage patterns as well. Countless times have we been stopped and complimented on our style and been told 'gee… i wish everyone would dress like that still'
Its really a shame how muddled the fashion world is now.

a backflip is of a dubious behavior, for a lady dressed as such.
