Hot hot summer

On a hot summer's day, here is the line up to view The Golden Age of Couture Paris & London 1947-57, staged at the Bendigo Art Gallery.  An art gallery always has such incredible vibes for me to just sit and write.  I loved the ooze of style, the flamboyant sketches of the designers and the minute sewing of embellishments by the dress makers.  Of course one would need a gala occasion and a gala figure to wear such garments, but I heard many a spectator, murmuring, wish fashion could be like this again.
It can: in a poem, a story, a memory.
