LOL!

yes, `twas very beautiful! I Love the color of the tutu: I feel prettiest when I am wearing shades of blue!

I like wearing a tutu at the Do It Yourself Nutcracker in SF, even tho' I look like a badly done drag queen.
what thread is this? omg! sorry ... LOL

Nat · 06-02-2010, 06:19 PM

I loved her as Baroness Schrader - it's neat to see her other looks too.

Kätzchen · 06-02-2010, 06:23 PM

I like the 2nd B&W photo of her in the sweetheart neckline/long sleeved dress!

Love that style! I think that style would look stunning on me!

I bet it would - what color would you choose and what would the rest of the dress look like?

Nat · 06-02-2010, 06:35 PM

Thanks Isadora and ALovelyKiss - it seemed to say what I wanted about this thread - just a happy blue etsy tu-tu. I don't know if my tutu wearing days are over, but if I get a chance one day, I'll totally rock one anyway.

Maybe to pride, but not this year.

Oh that sounds very fun.

Now you must post a pic of yourself wearing a tutu at said event as payment for derailery!

Midnight Blue, a waistline, oodles of sprawling fabric below the waist!

Maybe some silvery sparkly-threads in the fabric, as well.

I totally love that dress in the photo and would want the dress to basically be of the same design! I love the sweetheart neckline the most!

I am going to be looking for something like what I'm imagining from your description and if I find it, I'll post it.

okay would it be shaped like this?

The skirt part yes - maybe even more fabric; the top/bodice part - in the top left of the pattern depicted -yes...

If I find a photo too, I will post it; but I'm not too great a conducting online searches, *lol* I mostly come upon them by accident...

waxnrope · 06-02-2010, 07:09 PM

I don't know, Nat. If I were dancing or otherwise close to the woman in the first pic, I would either get me sneezing or tickling me into giggles. Just saying ...

um, I don't have the pic of that ... thank goodness ... but my dance partner does!

Kätzchen · 06-02-2010, 07:11 PM

I love this dress! Lots of billowing fabric, two-tone (or does one call it 'sharkskin'?) shades of purple (purplish blues, etc); love the neckline - would alter the sleeves to be 3/4 or so.

A very pretty dress, Nat!

Hmm maybe it would be fun to wear a dress that tickled oneself or others into giggles.

Can we twist said partner's arm?

Jackie Kennedy's wedding dress may have some similarities, but it's missing sleeves.

How long would you want the skirt?

I'm bad enough with the tutu ... a dress would cause a scandal!

uh, no, you can't twist her arm ... or any other body part ... she's moved.

Now, stop baiting me before I get into trouble for derailing the thread! I just like to "look at the pictures" ... LMAO

Nat? I do like floor length for most skirted long dresses but I do tend to favor waltz-length because I might have an extraordinary pair of shoes...

Her wedding dress is a treasure, yes? I can't remember, but wasn't her wedding dress designed by someone kind of famous? Or, maybe it was worn by another member in her family??? I don't remember...

KayCee · 06-02-2010, 07:57 PM

left dress...

I prefer no ruffles, no laces...just pure elegance
