“Why Miss Scarlet, with a little more clevage and lengthening of the hem, this would make a mighty fine dress for the bbq over at Twelve Oaks Saturday next.”"
Mary: “And the little pink belt goes so well with your little pink waist.”
Kimberly: “Why, Mary, I believe you’re jealous! That little green sash looks perfect with your little green waist. And the little bows at your shoulders draw the eyes right up to your jealous little face. It’s perfect for you! Even those eyelet holes seem somehow appropriate!”
Mary: “Hmmmph”.
Have any of you gone dress shopping recently? Girls, apparently, aren’t supposed to have ribcages anymore. I went to every single store in the local mall last week and could not find a single dress for a person with both a rib cage and a chest. Unfortunately, I have both. I am still dress-less. Maybe I can sew my own…
Aaack – not from the same decade, but that dress is sooooo like the one I wore as a “maid of honor” at a friend’s wedding in the early 1990’s – right down to the huge skirt and sleeves!
This is such a thoughtful design the way it gives both the armpits and the crotch a chance to air out. One wouldn’t want to emit an embarrassing odor at the regatta.

Woo Hoo! Napolean Dynamite reference!
Is that a medium-sized version of the Lilliputian people?*giggle*

Reminds me of Anne of Green Gables, she always wanted puffed sleeves.
I keep waiting for the one in red to start singing that she’s just a girl who cain’t say no!
What is with those waists? What happened to the lower part of their ribcage? Surgically removed?
Either that, or they’re so tightly corseted that the overflow has been pushed up into the puffy sleeves.

Hey, I think my Mom made that dress for her graduation!
Dude, Plippin’ Sweet! I’ll have to look for that pattern! I want to be Deb. for Holloween! I’ve even got a friend that looks like Napolean!

Jenna (in red);But dahling, why should I get rid of my Juvenile Jenna?
Tenille (top): Because she took my Tiny Tenille’s dress.
Wow, those are REALLY puffy sleeves! o_O You could hide a tiny poodle in each one.
