52 PICK-UP: Roaring 20's!!!!!!!!!!

 

I gave up looking around my house this morning for the vintage 1920's evening dress I've owned for about 30 years. It's someplace. This costume I made and designed for the stage play of Enchanted April will have to do.

It's sea foam green satin, with trim in the shape of leaves. The 2 shoulder pins are from a local department store.  For some amazing 1920's fashion, you should check out Miss Fisher Murder Mysteries. You can watch it on Netflix or public tv. Our poor dress form came apart, so I fixed her with gaff tape.
