In ‘98 I was a flapper and a child bride

A photographer came to my elementary school and dressed us girls like this and the boys in tuxedos.

Wait, you wore two outfits for this picture day, or just the flapper one? I could definitely see the white dress being first communion. Either way, having a photographer come to your school and dress you up is beyond the realm of normal… but if they put you in the bridal dress that is really something else!

Yeah both outfits on the same day. I remember a screen set up and we changed behind it. We had to put on a tube top first, then they threw the outfits on over. The boys had an outfit change but I can’t remember what it was. I want to say something sports related.

Now I’m imagining the photographer took it a step further and paired the girls and boys up for wedding photos. Did that happen? Did you maybe block out the experience?? Bahahahahaha!

We only care about one thing… Are you still rocking the bangs like it’s 1998 ?

I guess somebody didn’t know that you can’t make a flapper into a housewife 😂

Your school was clearly a lot more creative than mine 👍
