New Fashions at Versailles


Today, new fashions arrived on the doorstep of the Petit Trianon! Marie received this lovely poppet crafted of felted wool, vintage fabrics, lace, and sequins. The dress is hand-sewn with a needle and thread. She even has tiny matching shoes with crystal rhinestone and feather buckle ornaments. Her hair is a fashionable sky blue...reminiscent of a clear and sunny day playing in the petit village. It is decorated with a gilded, pastel bird and fabulous feathers! And...the icing on the cake...she is carrying a lace, sequin spangled fan! I believe the Queen will approve this gown as her newest wardrobe addition.

very cool! dress is beautiful.

It's given me an idea...I think my next mini-theatre will have characters created from q-tips! For some reason, your doll made me think of q-tips.

I assume that was part of the art-doll swap? you made out quite well, I would say! :)
