My Poppy Parker OOAK Haloween ball outfit - FS

Posted by GeraldLopez on September 27, 2023, 5:17 pm

Hi everyone!

I made a hand stitched(needle and thread no machine) one of a kind outfit for Poppy to wear to the Halloween ball. The gown closes with snaps in back.

Orange and white stripes over a sheer gathered skirt. The gathers are accented with hand stitched sequins and beads. The bodice and waist area are accented with rhinestone diamond shapes, hand stitched black and orange beads. Two kinds of beautiful fancy black trim accent the me of the skirt which is hemmed with no fraying.(rolled under hem).

Accessories include: A tulle wrap and earrings.

Doll shoes, and original box NOT included.

Selling on Ebay but will offer here at a discounted price for Doll Diva folks.

Price - $125

Shipping free in Continental United States.

I accept Paypal.

I'm a great seller too- used to sell my OOAk gowns at conventions

That was years ago. Stopped when I stayed home to take care of my Grandmother who had Cancer.
Once you're gone from the doll world the momentum dies and people forget about you- happens to all of us. We've lost a lot of doll designers in the last few years and I never hear or see anyone mention them. Some died of illness a couple committed suicide(Very sad and they were fairly young and well known)

Anyway I used to sell under the name Gerald ANTONY DESIGNS at first Barbie then Integrity conventions. Fun times still friends with a lot of those people.
I'm getting older now and can't find the eye of the needle without putting on my glasses-heehee. And I don't think people have ever really appreciated the hand work and time that goes into an outfit anyway so will probably be back out of it again.

Dont really know why I wrote all of this- feeling nostalgic for something that's gone I suppose. No worries, I probably won't write on here again.

Oh I am still a collector- I'm hooked there I think- thus the need to sell to acquire more. The collector way- heehee.

Dolly hugs!

It's a lovely dress! If it is something you like doing, then don't give it up.
