Rotated/cropped image to straighten.
Added a Levels Adjustment Layer to correct red cast.
Added both a brightness/contrast and Hue/Saturation Adjustment layers. Slight changes in both.
Used Selective Color to fix skin tones and lips.
Channel mixer for some eye work, they were a bit red in the original.
A bit of dodging/burning here and there.

I'd like to go back and work on her dress more...I like how it looks in Ken's version.

Wow, wonderful skin tone! And the pinks and greens look very true to the era.

Well, I've looked at them all and I think this one ranks way up there. Very good use of adjustment layers, and a very clear description that would be easy to follow.
Nice one.
