Creme de Menthe

Grasping her long cloak around her Yvette walked quickly past '84, Avenue Foch', the Gestapo Headquarters. It was ironic that she was to meet his accomplice here, a jittery society hostess, right under their noses, to accept an insignificant looking bag, filled with priceless gemstones, gilded tiaras, baroque pearls, the like of which she'd never see again. Nor would she see Dietrich again, but she wouldn't shed a tear for him, there had been enough shed over these jewels over the years for her to waste hers on him. Oh no, she'd deliver them to the address given to her that morning, then she's go home, and write this all down, in her diary, to read another day, a tale of `Those Stolen Tears'.

Outfit consists of  a cloak of darkest, bitter brown satin backed crepe, contrasted with eau-de-nil silk satin, encrusted with copper bugles. Under this a fishtailed, swirling, embroidered skirt, a midriff skimming top, again embroidered with flowers, and finished with tiny vintage rick-rack braid. A mink trimmed hat with beaded satin flowers on the crown, an embroidered bag, shoes, and that special bag of loot.

Also included with this ensemble is a beautiful OOAK set by Bijoux Fantasie entitled `Baba Au Rhum' – a luscious treat for the eye layering Honey translucence over Jewel Tones with gold a Crème de Menthe Swarovski crystals.
