    Rita Hayworth - Fashion Icon

    Just ran across these pictures in the LIFE images on Google (mentioned here) while browsing for any new-to-me Rita Hayworth photos. I was familiar with this one, Rita in her wedding dress with Prince Aly Khan. But then I found these photos of women trying on Macy's version of her wedding...

    Last voyage of Queen Elizabeth II.

    I had hoped to stay on each of the Queens before they were retired, but it looks like I'll never make it to this one. I have zero plans to make it to Dubai anytime soon.

    Keep an eye out on Amazon for the seasons on DVD. They were recently (I think about 4 weeks ago) on sale for $12.97 apiece. I'm :eusa_doh: that I didn't pick them up then...I love that show.
