| My earliest interpretation of this moment was at my first show in 1996! I brought her back for the 2005 Boston convention, reworked and refined--well, as "refined" as a gal with a curtain rod on her shoulders can be... I reworked an older face sculpt-- one that had more character and closer resemblance to Carol Burnett. Rerooted and styled as "Starlett." The costume was researched and is complete-- from lace-trimmed pantaloons,full hoop skirt, and floral dress with apron (all the stuff you don't see...) to the green velvet, fringe-trimmed curtains and real brass curtain rod. Even the hat is a rolled up bit of "curtain" with fringe dangling in her face. ...can't you just smell the mint juleps? *giggle* |
