Judy (then Ethel Gumm) with sisters Mary Jane (tallest) and Jimmie (second to tallest)
“From that time on the Gumm sisters were a trio-the Gumdrops, they were sometimes called. It cannot be said that Baby immediately outshone her older sisters. But her talent grew as she did, and gradually it became clear that she was indeed the star. No one knew it better than her mother. When they visited the Milne relatives, Ethel carried in the car a small portable stage, a folding table with short legs. Out it would come at some point during the stay, and Baby would be told to jump up and do a couple of tap dances. She had been constantly since the age of two, she later said and in no way was she exaggerating: her mother had packed a stage next to her dresses and dolls.” - Taken from ‘Get Happy, The Life of Judy Garland’

20s aesthetic:
❝Джаз, небоскрёбы, большие деньги и стремление взять от жизни всё. Это были двадцатые - ревущие, золотые, сумасшедшие. Особенное время, с его необыкновенной жизненной энергией, желанием получать наслаждение и веселиться так, словно каждый в душе уже понимал, что вскоре мир вновь окажется на пороге беды.❞
