I am pleased to offer this OOAK vintage outfit
(item includes jumper, hat, and shoes -- nothing else is included)
-- a Friday Nite Date corduroy jumper that I found in really sad condition -- dirty, faded, almost no appliques (but good snaps and tagged). I have turned it into a whimsical true one of a kind piece. The fabric was in such poor condition that it took my sunflower gold dye very unevenly -- some areas are almost white (I tried twice, same result!). So there's that. Rather than try to make it look like a Mattel original, I made folk art by adding all sorts of goo gahs -- glitter, ribbon, sequin, terrycloth, and several new satin flowers custom dyed for this piece -- plus a couple of real vintage Mattel bits as a nod to the original (the bird house sits on a post made from Evening Splendor material, one yellow and one pink original applique, and the "hole" in the bird house is a teeny bit of velvet from a Guinevere gown). I will include vintage knock off open toe heels in deep yellow (no splits but incredibly fragile -- I took a chance and got them on my model's feet but pretty dicey so beware future splits!) and a vintage hat with paper flowers.
I am a hobbyist, not a professional, so you should expect exactly what you see -- a unique, pretty outfit -- and not something with stunning tailoring and perfection.
