The Bunny Ears Have It

Showgirl Barnum Bailey, 1946There is nothing so much fun as a dress-up party – sartorially speaking that is. It’s the perfect excuse for adults to revisit their childhood. And what fun to be a circus performer – you get to dress up every day and people pay you for it! Just take a look at these chicks from the 1940s and 50s: that’s circus chic with a touch of glamour. I think the bunny ears have it though.
