1973 Press Photo Young Girl Modeling Indian Style Clothing New Delhi

Indian style en vogue now also for the tiniest totos : Mamta, the pretty 2 1/2 year old dark haired girl is modeling this type of garment for the photographer simply to proof how becoming her country's native costume is also for the little ones, for the sweet "model" was born in New Delhi India. Naturally she does so to shows how becoming the Indian cloths which are presently so much favoured by the female grown ups in Europe, are for the youngest generation , too. On our photo Mamta with the hearty smile wears an embroidered cotton pant - suit decorated also with the typical small mirrors - and to top things off she evidently snatched her Mummy's elaborate Indian rings which , of course, are a "must" with this type of costume.
