Last weekend mom, Molly, Sofia and I visited our local flea market - we dug through linen tablecloths, old black and white photos, french trim and glass jars....but the prize of the day went to Sofia...she found this wonderful pen and ink costume rendering. The dealer had cleared out a costume designer's home in the Hollywood Hills and had hundreds of old, original designs. Sofia chose this one - which is now hanging in her room. I like the look on this woman's face - as if she's saying "Oh God, here we go again....." or maybe "What was I thinking????" Either way - she's Sofia's headache now!

ReplyDeletemaybe she's asking for a drink...
ReplyDeleteMaybe she "simply had to look away".
ReplyDeleteOr, she just rubbed one of those magazine perfume strips on her wrist...
Perhaps she is an ex flamenco dancer who just can't give up the moves!
Hmm...
she's fab! is it signed? I might recognize the designer from my former life as a costumer!
