Mine, currently, and for months, has a green silk panniered gown on
it, minus all the furbelows. I can't decide how to embellish
it--ruffles? lace? bows?

Subject: Re: [h-cost] What's your dressmaker​'s dummy wearing today?
Mine,
The 'dummy' I am working with this week is for a 20 model, seated. The project
is an interpretation of Queen Victoria's portrait in the Diamond Jubilee
gallery.? Black satin with antique lace overlay...even have a small piece of
Honiton to use.? Researching the Crown was lots of fun...didn't
Mine is wearing a hunter green cashmere coat from a Vogue Designer
pattern that needs, hems, cuffs and a final pressing. There is no
hope I'll have it done for this winter. Maybe next...
She's also wearing my houseguest's jacket hat.
