nightgown - self made
meet my new dress form
(have yet to come up with a name for her)
..
made this nightgown the other day
tried to photograph me wearing it
but it was simply impossible
to do that on my own
in this tiny apartment we have
(and it's a bit too wintery outside
to hide in some nearby bushes
trying to shoot pics with my usual help
of tripod and stray dogs)
..
so.. as i said
meet my new dress form
she's a strange one, isn't she?
i must have been consumed way too many vodkas
when i order her
'cause she's a size smaller than i am
and her constructors must have sniffed some craft glue
'cause poor thing has absolutely no ass whatsoever
..
any name suggestions?
..
mokosha
Hehe, imamo litke bliznakinje ;).
ReplyDeleteJa sam, iz cistog zezanja, rekla muzu da treba da damo neko ime lutki. On dade predlog Sara, i od onda je tako zovemo. Kako vreme odmice, sve vise se oboje sazivljavamo sa Sarom kao trecim clanom porodice, zezamo se sa njom, povremeno je i grdimo, a ima momenata kada jedno od nas dvoje ispolji ljubomoru zbog prekomernog druzenja sa Sarom... Nisam ocekivala tako buran zivot u troje! Budi na oprezu, lutka ima vrlo jak karakter...
:) da, bliznakinje su, tvoja lutka me je inspirisala da i ja uzmem sebi jednu.. i ja se s ovom mojom nekako saziveh odmah (morala sam da je obucem u haljinu cim je stigla u stan, nakako mi je cudno da bude 'gola' hehe).. i nocu izgleda prilcino morbidno, posto stoji u sobi u kojoj spavam, nekad se probudim i ugladam je onako bunovna i ne bude i svejedno hehe
DeleteYou are so funny! No names come to mind right now, but the nightgown looks really sexy! So good to have you and your creations back.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I always forget to mention: mocosa (similar sound with mokosha) means little brat in spanish, so that you know. Did you know it?
oh that's sooo funny, hehe! now i like my nickname even more! mokosha is actually a name of old slavic pagan goddess (growing up as a metalhead, i always had a soft spot for paganism, what can i say hehe)
Deleteare we seriously living the same fashion life? sister from another mister, a dress form just landed in my lap this afternoon. she is too small in the waist and hips, but i hugged her like a demon anyway. i have a sazerac ready for a night of googling "padding dress forms" and "how to drape."
ReplyDeleteoona dear, not only that we're sisters, we are apparently twins hehe.. i could use a 'hair of the dog' cocktail right now
DeleteVery nice nightgown. I call mine Frank. He is shapeless...I need to get rid off him. (Shhhh...don't let him hear that)
ReplyDeletethanks, don.. hehe, just don't hurt good ol' frankie :)
Deletei bought a dress form too!! also looking for a name... dreaming of draping, but in the meantime, i just hang my current project on her. looove it!
ReplyDeleteOoooh I love the idea of making nightgowns! I'll have to add this to my maybe-make list, if I can find some fabric that could work.. thanks for the idea!
