 :D Ha ... I've just seen this, big bows seem to feature in some of my 50's class photos too, they seem to come and go don't they, like the big bow clips 80s/90s.
Those giant bows for children did seem to be pretty commonplace though earlier in the century for some years.

Perhaps take it as an April Fool joke, noting the date  ;D
