Cissy Period Style Ensemble

`Best Defense'

At times the best defense in times of trouble is to present a cheerful front - something to make people smile and forget for a while at least !

 

Here Cissy warms the heart in a light colourful ensemble topped with an exuberant frou-frou Hat complete with bird!!

The Hat is a concoction of ribbon, flowers and foliage with a tiny yellow `mushroom' bird nestling at it's heart.

Her jewellery set epitomises that worn in the Forties - fun, maybe outragious - the pale pink clusters and lime leaves sparkling as the move.

The short Bolero is faced with blue silk Dupion which forms the `Apron drape' scallop from which falls a soft chiffon swag. Lemon wristlet gloves finish this Ensemble

`Best Defense' Costume consists of Silk Dupion pink skirt with contrasting silk apron and print chiffon `apron drape'and strapless silk bodice, Chiffon bolero with silk facings, OTT floral Hat, gloves, floral necklace and matching bracelet

Price : $75 (inclusive of Airmail shipping from UK)
