Party Dress




Mabel Watson Payne (age twelve weeks) and her parents rode BART from downtown San Francisco over to the East Bay on Saturday for lunch at grandmother's house – and a party with friends to follow.










Naturally Mabel Watson Payne wore a party dress, its splendid swirly skirt constructed from loops of wide grosgrain ribbon in pinks and greens.








During lunch Mabel Watson Payne reposed in her father's arms, quietly and effortlessly embodying the Platonic Idea of Beauty, Baby Division.
