Dressing-up: pretending

I interpreted dressing-up to be putting on a "brave face" or pretending.
As I started composing the image I imagined the characters to be an unhappily married couple dressing-up for some sort of strained social occasion (like a relative's wedding). The woman dresses up in a fancy hat and the man "wears" a smile. They pose as a happy couple though secretly they can't stand each other anymore.
But now as I look at their expressions, their faces seem to suggest grief more than anything else. Perhaps it's not that they have an unhappy marriage but it's that they have recently experienced a loss and are putting on a brave face in public.
Either way, rather bleak. Maybe Lizzie's will be more cheerful!

No. 2: 'dressing-up'
Wowzers, I'm super impressed they we've both managed to get our first project posted ahead of the Sunday noon (GMT) deadline - Hoorah!
My suggestion for this week's theme is 'dressing-up'. I think this can lend itself to lots of different interpretations, let's see what we come up with :)
