1918 Acme Dress Form

1918 Acme Dress Form 

Meet Lilibit my beautiful dress form.

She is named after my mother using her nickname.  

This girl is just a little over 100 years old. 

Here she is in an ad

Here she is the day I found her. 

I dressed her up to display her in our home. 

My tulle skirt, a vintage styled corset, vintage jewelry, ribbon, and floral corsage.

I topped her off with a vintage fur found in a thrift shop in Korea. 

Here she is next to my circa 1850 armoire

I have wanted an antique dress form for so long and I am so happy to have found her. 

I hope to start posting here on my blog more often.  I hope you will come by and visit. 

Stay safe everyone, 

Beverly
