Oh
Dear. This reminds me of the story of Princess Imogen,
daughter of King Cymbeline of Britain, whose stepmother (the
new Queen) plots to have Imogen marry her cloddish Son
Cloten.
Seriously
now, this isn’t about a garter. How
can one item strip the dignity of any woman? This is
about a Man. A Man and his manners. Explain it to him
now, because dear, if he's not on his best during the
reception, he'll only prove to be more churlish during the
marriage.
OK
Cinderella, Here's how it's done: lower the garter from your
upper thigh to just below the knee. Sit like a princess- have him
kneel before you like a Prince. Lift your skirt no higher
than 3 inches above the knee. Turn your heel. Show your
legs. (Channel the ghost of Marlene Dietrich if you have
to. Unfamiliar with Dietrich's legs? Google images...) Show your shoes. Yes, those shoes that you spent
two months looking for that for the most part are hidden
under your gown. Now is the time to show them off.
