I have a question. Will the dress sell 1 unit, as shown? And I sure would love to see a person get in to or out of a car - any car - wearing it. Just sitting down would seem to be a bit of a production - you just know those wires would spring up and out in who knows what direction (up...

Fantastic!! :clapping: And look at Laura's fabulous ad for her Vintage Fashion Library right next to Lizzie's mention. It is strikingly beautiful Laura - eyecatching in the best way. You did an amazing job :clapping: Thanks so much Vivienne for letting us know when our members get such...

Brilliant Hollis! Take a bow :D :clapping: Carolyn

Oh what a great dress Harriet! I can see how it'd be hard to part with, but Jody's right -- ca-ching ca-ching ca-ching :D And now Mary's given you everything you need to know about Hana ~ :USETHUMBUP: Carolyn

Navy lace dress with matching jacket Navy rayon twill coat with large plastic buttons from Halle Bros. (We're in the Navy now ;) ) Carolyn

Hooray! Mere words - even spelled correctly - cannot express my gratitude. Thank you Linda! :love008: Carolyn

Laura - Well it is cute, but 'scooter girl' is a bit of a stretch (I should've asked myself: 'Scooter girl + Swirl? Really?' lol) Cotton blend poplin top; ribbed cotton print skirt with matching belt with plastic rings buckle. The skirt has pockets & hidden elastic side inserts. Zip...

Laura, I have the cutest Swirl Girl! :wub: Now where on earth is she... she can't run, but she can hide -- and I bet she will. But I'll find, measure, take a quick pic or 2 & get back to you. It's not a wrap style - it's a kinda mod, scooter-girl number (60's, young) - aDORable...

I read about this months ago (& forgot :BAGUSE: ) - thanks for posting this & for the recommendation. I'll tell Mr. Tivo about it - he'll make sure I see it :D Carolyn

Hey, it's a major mill- I mean milestone! Millennielstone? What-EVAH ~ Congratulations! :party: Carolyn

70's Hanae Mori silk crepe de chine dress Carolyn

I love that lady too :) She's not an advert/logo icon for nuthin'. Additional visual can be so helpful for dating, and it's really interesting to see how labels in business over a span of decades or centuries evolve, mirroring or making the zeitgeist. (That'll be $10 please. For the...

Exquisite dress Candy, and your new mannequin is am auserlesensten ;) Looking forward to seeing more of what you have in store, as always ~ Carolyn

WHAT a delight!! I loved it! Watched it 6, 7 who knows how many times. Enough times to ask you whether your co-star (the one with the 'speaking part') was a Mini Cooper :D Oh! You! (words fail me----) :love008: Carolyn

Wonderful! You can really see the vestiges of late Catalina style in the early DeWeese designs. Thank you so much for this wonderful contribution. Does the bust of the dress have a frilly detail along the top? I've never seen one like that. And what a fabulous print! :USETHUMBUP...

Oh wow ( :duh: ) I hadn't heard. When I think of big, 80's architectural fashion I really think of Ferre. He made some exquisite things. Off to read - thanks for the heads-up Sue. Carolyn

Your question made me think about that big, expensive bells & whistles Maytag 'laundry center' deal from a few years ago that I thought I just HAD to have... it had all these drawers and steam-closet-type things with 'refresh' cycles... This one? I thought someone here had gotten one, but...

When I saw the title of this video clip on Paper's blog I thought you'd been scooped or somehow defrauded ;) But it's more about about getting dressed & there are no paper dresses involved; still, Wear & Tear wouldn't have been a bad alternate title for your book! Carolyn...

Just stunning Hollis! As usual your photos say: everything here - the clothes, the service, the packaging - will be top notch... :USETHUMBUP: Carolyn P.S. The manni in the pink short-sleeved suit - you wouldn't happen to remember where she came from would you? I'd love to find...

Janine, While it doesn't give specific details about the cause of death (there's no mention of cancer) I think the obit that appeared in the NY Times is exceptionally illuminating. Isabella Blow, Flamboyant Discoverer of Fashion Talent, Dies at 48 By GUY TREBAY Published: May 8...

Jonathan, there's one from the first printing (see how optimistic I am!) with my name on it! :USETHUMBUP: :clapping::USETHUMBUP: Carolyn

Mink! And I love the photo :) The link Marie posted above is great for color reference, I use it a lot; and I agree with Hollis - sweater shavers are a godsend - I don't think I could sell vintage sweaters without one! Carolyn

That's an excellent idea Bonnie, and the way Amazon is structured it would't be hard to do... hmmmm ;) Dianne, thanks so much for posting that list (which I'm going to cross-reference with Amazon.com's stock)! I was completely blown away -- it's just astonishing! Lots of teriffic books many...

I would call them ghillies, absolutely! :USETHUMBUP: Carolyn

Sara - Your daughter will have a wonderful trip. Anything she needs that she hasn't brought with her (including AA batteries and maybe a very warm fleece jacket) will be easy to get, and cheaper than at home :) She'll be fine. You'll be fine. I first traveled to Europe with friends when...

Hollis, Sounds like a really good day! I'm going to grab that great photo of you & Elizabeth for the vfg 'album' if you don't mind :D Carolyn

Mary Jane - I can't believe it-- my beefeater hat is THISCLOSE to being *sigh* history, and here you are offering one for sale. Kismet! LOL ~ beautiful beautiful things, as always. The shoes are especially fab :D Carolyn

It's been said before but it bears repeating (especially since I mean it!): Hollis you are an inspiration! And your auctions give us all something to aspire to :) Carolyn

That's great Maggie! Sure you can blow your own horn--- hey, wait a minute - you do that all the time anyway don't you?! :horny: Silliness aside, I'm thrilled that you and your dress are getting the wide exposure you deserve! Carolyn

I'd call it a sun dress too - a full skirt sun dress :) Carolyn
