Joan Blackmore - 1939
Joan Blackmore was 22 years old in 1939, the year she was the princess representing the "English Colony" at the Mexico City Country Club. Born in Mexico in 1917, Joan was a British citizen who traveled frequently back to her parents' home country and maintained her British identity even while she traveled in high society circles in Mexico. She is wearing a pair of beautifully sculpted rose-shaped dress clips at the neckline of her simple dress. Perfect for an "English rose." Simple button earrings complete her spare, but perfectly refined, look.
