HE LITTLEST A1TENDANTS WIN SMILES IN CHARM-
ing retro influences, all done up in dressy fabrics with exquisite detail-
ing. Boys mimic little Lord Fauntleroy in lacy jabot shirts and blouson
knickers, or don navy blazers and ivory trousers with patterned bow ties.
Little ladies make a lasting impression with tea-length skirts, ribbon-
sashed waists, and touches of lace and pearls. And sailor suits and dress-
es with front ties and back bibs melt hearts when topped with ribbon-tailed
straw boaters.
