The Prop Project: Gretel Dress

Thank you all SO much for taking an interest in “The Prop Project”. Not only does it allow me to exercise my creativity in which props I can choose, but it also gives us a chance to share and inspire. I used to think it was bad to spend any money on an item for a photo, but I’ve come to realize that my dreams are bigger than my budget and that is just fine, there is no shame in that. A prop can liven up an image so much, it can bring a new element and put it over the edge so that it falls into that timeless, more beautiful realm that I am always striving for.

That said, next up is…the dress I wore for my Hansel and Gretel shot. It was also featured in a couple of my other images. The dress is perfect for a fairytale look, and also makes a wonderful “Alice” dress. If you get a petticoat to go underneath it gives the dress volume and really takes it to another level.

Some points about the dress…

- Longer in the back than it is the front, giving it much more “whimsy”!

- Knee length

- Embroidered in lace on the front

- Authentic vintage, 1960′s

- Baby blue in color

- Fits sizes 0-6 (I am a 2, and it is a bit big on me but also very easy to alter)

- Zips up the back

- Has a small pink stain on the bottom of the dress

And remember, whoever wins this item and uses it in an image will be featured on my blog. The item can be purchased on Ebay HERE for a fraction of what I paid for it :) Happy bidding, and thank you!!
