The Passing of June Dally-Watkins

​The Australian elocution, etiquette and modelling circles grieve for June Dally-Watkins, whom shall forevermore remain synonymous with elegance, grace, etiquette and poise.  The doyenne of Australian etiquette, the Amy Vanderbilt of her time, she inspired men and women to aspire to good manners, humanity, eloquence and kindness throughout the decades.  In doing so, she created a legacy that etiquette teachers such as myself aspire to furthering.  My thoughts are with her family at this time.
