Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt poses in two of nine costumes that she chose for the visits of the King and Queen to the White House and to Hyde Park. At left she is wearing an evening stale of white Alaskan erminu over a formal evening gown of chilfon in pastel shades of mauve, with a train of lime green and petal pink. At right she is shown wearing a formal evening gown of natural Alencon lace which she wore at evening functions during the visit of the Erliish royalty. The gown, with a wide flared skirt forming a train, is appropriate for the romantic month "of June. Under this gown is worn a taffeta slip of natural colour which has a taffeta rufe on the bottom with braids of blue velvet ribbon which show as the skirt swings.
