I also have such a deep respect for the research Sandra does to provide such a wonderful event. All the details that were given at each event about the local area, museums and socialites who wore couture fashion of the period as well as the designers they worked with. Elizabeth Parke Firestone was at the center of Sandra’s vision for this convention. With an extra treat of Kathryn Hepburn’s movie costumes.
SSP – Sophisticated Lady Convention-Middleburg Hts. / Cleveland OH
My 2 Gene Dolls that I just got at the event wearing outfits that I received or purchased:
Allegro and Intermezzo
Templar-Bronze, True Love, Espalier
Libretto and Staccato
JS Ginny in Reprise:
Gene in front of the Stan Hywet backdrop we received:
The gown from the Elizabeth Firestone collection at the Western Reserve Museum and the inspired Convention gown we will receive when it is produced. I think it took the factory 3 times to get the gown the way Sandra wanted and it will be worth the wait! Called Virtuoso.
The Convention diorama by Sue of the Stan Hywett Entrance was fabulous!
Stan Hywett Recital gown:
The rest of the images provide most but not all of the outfits on display. There were some fabulous gowns on the last day that aren't here. Look at Sandra's site for more!
