Scope and content
Specifies which photographs she would like prints of. Everyone is 'ecstatic' about them, with one exception. Discusses the photograph that she does not like. Beaton's favourite needs slimming down along the back and the bottom of the bust line. Is attaching the prints with markings on some. After the '"bosom"' problem has been dealt with, the ones that Beaton likes will be alright for publication. Was enchanted by Beaton's piece and drawings for "Vogue" and all the things that he did for the Coronation, including her portrait.
