Hang on, Samuel.... is this THE dress????!!! Neil and Helen -- can you confirm this?

Look closely on her opposite shoulder, isn't that the brim? I mean, how many golden dresses could she have had??

I concur, you're right. Different dress. They do look similar, though.

Here's a dress I haven't seen before:

Yes - it was a promo picture they used in programmes.

It's looks dated now...very late 50's! Thank goodness she wore better things later.

I've always thought the reason for the mushroom skirts was to get herself more space at the microphone - of all the things she could have worn in the early sixties that seems the only was to explain dresses like these.

Isn't this when she returned from South Africa, and the press swooped down on her for comments on her anti-apartheid stand ?
(And not an I-pad or blackberry among them.)
