O’Brien sisters

Posted June 28th, 2010

Here are two of the three fabulous O’Brien sisters.

O’Brien sister number one is my mum, Patricia looking pretty foxy in her tuck stitch sweater, stirrup pants and swivel chair.

Next comes Aunty Margaret aka Bridget (not sure why).

Both these photographs were taken by my dad, Pat Sharp – judging by Margaret’s eyebrows – in about 1963.

There is a third sister, Catherine, younger than Mum by 20 years.  Cate, I don’t have a picture of you!

Those girls are hell-on wheels when they get together.  You might as well sit back and enjoy the show, because you are not going to get a word in edgeways.

Busy working on ideas for the spring line.

I think Andy is on to something there.

Chris isn’t so sure. And what’s he doing wearing my slippers?
