    I thought debs were meant to wear white. Is the pink one a fallen deb?
  • brodiss said:
    I suspect the lady in the front is in a pink frock due to the colourist getting carried away. It was very popular at the time for black and white images to be hand-tinted in colour but, as the person doing so was rarely, if ever, present when the original photograph was taken, sometimes the colour scheme could end up a little 'creative'.

    How to pick up objects? Forgive me, but what does that mean? They have to be taught how to pick things up?
  • Paul said:
    SJH Foto Yes, to avoid unnecessary cleavage spillage, or even stir temptation within onlookers. Lifting using your knees also prevents you putting out your back.

    Paul Oh, i gotcha. Well, it shows that the dress is too skimpy if they must move a certain way to avoid being immodest. But sadly, people wear even less today-even certain school uniforms that i have to shoot in my job aren't really appropriate
