Ann wearing the dress she used for evening functions when she was chaperoning the Ridings Cycle Queen. This was a publicity stunt which the firm ran from 1937-1939. M.H. Ridings was the original chaperon, then found it too time consuming, as she was engaged. Ann took on the job and Margret Ridings took her to Kendals to chose a dress. It was plum coloured shaded crimped chiffon.
