It sounds fabulous, and I just love the idea that you will be wearing it to promotions. In fact, I made myself a gown (mind you I am no seamstress) but it came out well enough. Perhaps I shall venture to your promotion, in my garb, and we can chit-chat and gossip about royal marriages :o)<br /><br />@Lauren Reeser- I just saw the award on your blog, thank you!!!Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06052080882886879580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5265120836698023886.post-80622970606953842932009-10-28T01:42:42.885-04:002009-10-28T01:42:42.885-04:00You've been awarded The Kreativ Blogger Award,...You've been awarded The Kreativ Blogger Award, given by American Duchess!

My main intention is to use it for fun promotional events for NOTORIOUS ROYAL MARRIAGES, which comes out the first week in January. So it looks like I'll go as Kathryn Howard, since I'm short, curvy, and redheaded. I'll be wearing a very cool Tudor costume that I bought at the NY Renaissance Faire some years ago. The overdress is a very autumnal brocade and weighs a ton. I have a gold mesh Juliet cap and a long curly red wig (which reminds me; I need to find a wig brush from someplace).<br /><br />I guess my makeup will be fairly simple. They didn't overdo it in Henry VIII's day. <br /><br />Maybe I should accessorize with a red ribbon around my neck as a metaphor for decapitation. Lauren, I'm sure you know this, but after the Revolution, the aristos who managed to survive the Terror would host victims' balls (or were they called survivors' balls?) where they'd wear a red ribbon around their necks like a choker and greet one another with a curt nod of the head, as if to mimic a chop of the guillotine blade.Leslie Carrollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09024567064317102889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5265120836698023886.post-78846551778507506632009-10-27T13:42:07.204-04:002009-10-27T13:42:07.204-04:00At your service, mademoiselle....At your service, mademoiselle....Paul Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09969557760934512569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5265120836698023886.post-92188672236197523452009-10-27T13:26:02.117-04:002009-10-27T13:26:02.117-04:00Antoinette's Vogue cover....what an excellent ...Antoinette's Vogue cover....what an excellent idea...Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06052080882886879580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5265120836698023886.post-16780696103276990232009-10-27T13:02:51.359-04:002009-10-27T13:02:51.359-04:00I think you should do the complete MA make-up, inc...I think you should do the complete MA make-up, including hair, but then wear a flesh toned body-stocking with a huge Austrian flag draped over your body. You can tell people it was MA's obscure but controversial Vogue cover. Paint the words 'traitor' and "tramp" on your forehead, too, as if a stamp, but with old-time script. This would so rock and encourage dialogues that would educate people about Marie's background and issues.Paul Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09969557760934512569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5265120836698023886.post-70378563919066461432009-10-27T08:34:28.054-04:002009-10-27T08:34:28.054-04:00@allie *slowly pulls out credit card* oh my goodne...@allie *slowly pulls out credit card* oh my goodness........(thanks for this tip, and thank goodness I haven't bought make up in a while.

Of course it is helpful to have 'working woman's stays' laying around the house :o)<br /><br />@Tutta- that is a great idea! In fact I never thought of that before, would need to find some snakes for sure! I bet I could talk Heather into this too (she would play the role well) :o haha jk heatherLaurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06052080882886879580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5265120836698023886.post-36982006299700130702009-10-27T03:42:08.326-04:002009-10-27T03:42:08.326-04:00One might have to have three friends to do this, -...One might have to have three friends to do this, -and simply dress up as the three furies!
