"Mama told me to rock the baby,
To keep her safe and warm
All my joy and all my sorrow,
Through the years will carry on "

PARTY TIME IN OAKDALE
'AS THE WORLD TURNS Pulls Out All The Stops For Its Annual Gala AIDS Ball' (SOW - August 1991)

By the time costume designer, Joan V. Evans checked off each item of clothing on her shopping list, nearly every decade in the past century of fashion was represented. "Lyla's dress was really a fifties dress with the sweetheart cut-out and the wide belt and the full skirt. Her dress was a challenge because her husband just died three weeks prior. So I wanted it to be elegant, but quiet, with both a good color and a good cut," Evans notes.
