Hot-Weather Street Wear

A Gisborne girl who visited Dunedin during the holidays complained on her return that when she walked down Princes Street in her shorts, she felt that everybody was staring at her.

The pleasant informality of warm-weather dress in Gisborne has always been a charming feature of the city for southern visitors.

To illustrate the point, we took a camera to the Peel Street corner on a really hot Friday afternoon.
