I still haven't gotten around to fixing the damaged areas on my original midcentury kneeling Jantzen mannequin, (more HERE and HERE if you missed it) --and I still haven't found her missing right arm either. But! I did finally find her some awesomely appropriate fall swimwear, and now ::drum roll:: an endless round of thanks to my incredibly talented friend, Clint, who is seriously some kind of swimsuit sewing / vintage pattern findin' mastermind, aka mad scientist. Okay, before we get started I have to say that no, it's not a vintage Jantzen swimsuit, (which would totally make sense, right?) --but anyone familiar with the classic Grey Gardens documentary will undoubtably recognize this one-piece repo flower print, as worn by Edith Bouvier Beale, aka Little Edie herself in the film. And I'm sure you'll agree, it really looks stunning on my mannequin, the colors match her skin tone perfectly, and the fabric really adds a certain something extra to her shapely girl curves too. Thank you again, Clint!
