It's that time of year: holiday parties, winter balls, company dinners, New Years Eve, cocktail parties,12th Night, You might even be planning a sojourn to a balmy tropical locale. Whatever the reason, costumers are probably making something. So, what's your dressmaker's dummy wearing today?
I'm storing a couple of hats on her right now, including my basic Harry Potter's World hat. Other than that she's just wearing a t-shirt with the bones of the human torso and hips printed on it. It belongs to her actually. I used to take her to schools to put costumes on, for historical talks, and the little kids would giggle when the clothes came off. But they don't giggle when they see bones underneath. (It ain't no sin to take off your skin and dance around in your bones.)
