Last time Amy was in London we had a "girl's day out," starting with a visit to the Victoria and Albert Museum to this exhibit I'd been dying to see. It was all about Fashion and the History of Gowns, with a special portion for iconic ballgowns from the 50's onward. I love history and when you combine it with fashion... It was a dream come true.
I think Amy was a bit dubious about it, but my enthusiasm must have been catching. At one point she turned to look at me a bit dazed and said "I had no idea you knew so much about all of this" after I'd been prattling on about the evolution of corsets, the correct glove lengths for each occasion and how the different materials in each gown reflected the social climate of each decade.
British Glamour- Ballgowns since the 1950's

We grabbed a cup of coffee after before heading to Covent Garden for dinner on the piazza.
We're laughing cause instead of 2% or Whole Milk they labeled it "Fatty Milk"
Guess that's us!
