RANSVESTIA

Rotyna was dressed in the gown Janet ad designed in på est blue organza over a taffeta underskirt fashioned in a “Gainsborough“ shepherdess style, long full organza sleeves and finished at ankle length over white nylon stockings and satin pumps.

“Come on now, Janet. we haven't got that much time and we don't want to be late,“ Robyna urged.

She fitted the long silk petticoats over her head carefull not to disturb the carefully coiffed hair style. then came the satin wedding gown. It was completely traditional in the "Camelot" style, high-necked, long slender sleeves and finishing with a small train. Next the satin evening shoes and finally the cowl veil and headdress was placed in position. There stood one of the most radiant and beautiful brides of the year.

The two flower girls, (William and Robert) were called in to have the pre-wedding photographs taken. They still looked a little embarrased at appearing in front of strangers in their girl's clothing but enjoying it more with every passing moment. They managed a very sweet curtsey to the bride.

They were dressed in an exact replica of Robyna's gown of organza over taffeta and it finished at knee length allowing the lace trimmed petti- coats to peek beneath when the skirt flared as they walked. Luckly they both wore their hair reasonably long and it had been fashioned into an urchin cut for the wedding. They had known of their father's activities for some time and as this was their first chance to emulate him they had insisted they be completely dressed in feminine clothing, including a brassiere, garter belt, and white nylon stockings!

They were joined by the two page boys (Hazel and Penelope). These two were dressed in an exact replica of the suit Bobbie would be wear- ing, who was determined to be a white Bridegroom. A white silk shirt with an enormous lace cravat and lace cuffs. This was worn under a gleaming white satin evening suit with a tightly cut coat and trousers flaring slightly towards the cuff.

At last the photographer was finished. They got into the car and began the journey to the church and into a new life.
