revolution in fashion : down with the empire dress

Ivory Lace Cocktail Blythe Dress by Gorgeous Blythe.

Seems like a long time ago now when all we could find to dress our dolls were Empire dresses or, if we kept looking, some more Empire dresses… There were some alternatives mind you and I have written about those, but still it got to a point where it was really hard to even appreciate the beautiful ones.

Now the Blythe community being so alive and creative, each day brings more variety into our girls’ wardrobes, and even though there may be a major trend, a trend where Blythe dolls are generally “cute” and “girly”, still we learn they can have wildly different styles.

As for instance with Tati’s dresses @ Gorgeous Blythe. Those are surely for the “ladies” in our dolls, they’re more evening – or cocktail – dresses than your everyday or casual ones, and my guess is we won’t see many mushrooms around here…

To be honest they’re not exactly the type of clothes my dolls like to wear, but this layered ivory cocktail dress is quite nice although since I’m not much into lace I really prefer the blue or Royal Green one she made – plus the color is beautiful and much more interesting – but the photo of this one fit better here.

(I can be picky that way.)
