No date on this photo. I called it "Elegant in White?" with a question mark, because it's a black and white photo, and I suppose it's possible that the dress could be ivory or a very pale pink or some other color. Who knows. I'll bet that Mum knows. She'll tell me later.
[update:
Mum wrote to me yesterday:
"Yes, the black and white picture was a white silk crepe dress that I wore to a party right after you were born. It was taken just months after I believe and I was extremely thin. I had spent countless weeks at the hospital and weeks after nursing and concerned for your tiny little body."
I was two months premature, and had only a small chance of survival. I'm lucky to be alive. Mum brought breast milk over to the hospital, to me in my incubator. She saved my life with her love and her care, and I'm so grateful. Nowadays they save babies even smaller than I was (3 lbs., 14 ounces), but back then the survival rate wasn't as good.
She also mentioned when I saw her yesterday that the dress had shiny embellishments in the middle section. I wish we could see those in the photo.]
