Vintage Girl

Sitting here wondering what to post about when I spy my gorgeous vintage girl out of the corner of my eye..

I have always loved vintage 'dress makers dummys' or  'vintage forms' as they are known..



Sandy from Paint Me White recently posted about a dress form that she had found...

I originally went searching for my girl a number of years ago and had difficulty finding one until  I visited here

I love the way they can add character to a room.







I paid way too much for my girl but she is delightful....  she is a 1920's or 1930's edition with a flat chest and tiny hips and waist .....

I often wonder where she has been and what she has seen...if only she could talk..



She used to sit in my bedroom, adorned with a white dress ( no not my wedding dress)


(no my room no longer looks like that either....)

Now I have her in the living area..naked except for a necklace, tape measure and some of my grandmothers vintage brooches.....






This is not her final  resting spot... I have plans for her... but I was trying to get a full length photo....

I do need to buy that camera....

Yes,  if only she could talk !!!!!!!!!!!
