Extract from a review in the Opunake Times: "For her first solo, “Little Miss Vanity,” Miss K. Watt chose a salmon pink ballet frock of satin and net, with frilled neckline and wrist ruffles, salmon pompadour hat trimmed with silver, the frock being finished with silver tinsel bows. Pink ballet shoes and sockettes were worn."
