When Tinsley Mortimer had to caption a throwback snap of her mother, Dale Mercer, there was no other description to use than "Gone With the Wind fabulous."

How to Watch

Now, onto the snap in question. In the black-and-white photo, Dale is wearing a white dress with sheer, puffy sleeves. There's a large, dark sash around her waist, and she's clutching a sheer, frilly parasol as the perfect Southern-style accessory. Scarlett O'Hara, meet your equally stylish match: 

In her caption, Tinsley wrote: "Like Kenya, my mom ... was also “Gone With the Wind Fabulous!"

Twirl, Dale, twirl!
