Many thanks to my friend Sue Burkey who knows far more about vintage clothing than I do and helped me date them. I don’t use many photographs here because it can be hard to figure out the copyright status of them but these I found in an archive researching something else so I thought I would use them here. Will look out for more. Sarah.
