<p>[QUOTE="Debora, post: 9573973, member: 1476"]They're not for square dancing. Square dance costumes emphasize volume when in movement and are tiered, ruffled and under-slipped. Yours are just New Look length. Here's Audrey Hepburn in 1953's Roman Holiday wearing similar. (A terrific movie for those who haven't seen. Edith Head was so clever in how she took the character from princess to proletariat with small tweaks to the same costume pieces.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Debora</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]460619[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
