Sybil Bruncheon's Fashion or Faux Pas?… "Guess That Caption!"...

Yes, Folks, it’s game time again, and you’ll have a chance to choose the best caption for the following photo! Here ya go!

1)   Erin McMurphy clearly thought of herself as the height of fashion... and had been encouraged to believe so! Notice the harp patch on her bust... No wonder that she's Irish... in which case the phrase "Erin Go Braless" is very appropriate, n'est-ce pas?

2)   In the later years of his reign in Imperial Rome, Emperor Nero opened an all-girls academy for the housewifely arts... and proclaimed himself as its divine guardian; Electroluxina… the patron goddess of dusting.

3)   Stacy Staunton was so proud of her new ensemble for the Fairview High School prom… and her outfit was designed by the science club! If she pressed the little concealed button in her left armpit, her accordion-pleated gown would play “My Wild Irish Rose”… LIKE AN ACCORDION!!!

4)   “Be honest, Myrtle Mae… does this hairdo make me look fat?”…

5)   If one wants to don a lampshade during a New Year’s Eve party, at least make sure that the hem length is suitable for mixed company! There is no reason to prance about like a floozy, showing one’s ankles in a house of burlesque!

6)   Enid Pranque had been hired at the Stinkleton Furniture Emporium to model in the living room displays… but not as a happy customer in her newly designed home! No! She was made to stand beside suites of furniture as a living “foot stool”… which was much more money than she had gotten as a living “throw-pillow”!!!... $11.00 a day, and $13.00 on the weekend!

7)   Margaret Anne had always been described by her family as “a barrel of laughs”… so her mother decided to send her off to Miss Pirkson’s Girl School dressed appropriately.

8) ... Ladies!... It's important to always select a silhouette in one's dress that flatters one's OWN figure. We can't all wear a flapper chemise from the Roaring 20s. The off-the-shoulder Empire look must always be thought out carefully, lest one look like a crocheted toilet paper cover in Grandma's bathroom... And Gentlemen... zig-zag socks are never appropriate, no matter what silhouette you're wearing... especially with pilgrim shoes!!!

9)   Mort Fleming was so proud of the fact that he was made head referee at the Wauseon Ladies Wrestling League… so he tossed away his striped uniform and had his wife help him choose a more gender-friendly ensemble for the wrestling ring. And look! That little pocket on the bust was perfect for tucking his referee’s whistle away between matches!
