There are nice things for young 'uns but not much for me I think.

That dog at the bottom is hilarious. He doesn't think so though.

M7793 - sorry, but I had to chuckle at the combination of the model used and the "custom cup sizes" - jolly good thing!

With apologies to those with very cuddly chests - I'm only jealous really  0_0

Bodge, the model is the costumes designer, Yaya Han. She looked quit different a few years ago. Would have used the A/B back then. Can you imagine wearing something like that to one of the cons and waiting in line for the restroom?  :S Back zipped cat suit, back laced corset, little fitted vest and all topped off by a cape. Yikes!

Fran the culotte has some really unique variations. I think the hat has potential for me but the clothes? When will the cold shoulder look die?
Hey Bill! Read the manual!  Hehehe.

When I saw McCall's 7789



I immediately thought of Brook Shields's Met Gala gown

That is quite a dull offering and I really don't get the cold shoulder thingy!

There was nothing there which appeals to me, and I don't go for the cold shoulder look.

The dresses seem all a bit samey to me. 
I don't do cold shoulder either.  If there's one bit of me I need to feel warm it's my shoulders.  And, if there's nothing on my shoulders the bit round the arm would be intensely irritating.
Life's too short for ironing.

@Francesca  that dress with long sleeves is much more attractive then that thing they sewed up as a sample. Glad you ferreted it out.

Also the cloth dolls and clothing are rather charming.
Hey Bill! Read the manual!  Hehehe.
