My hobbies includes...Karaoke, playing musical instruments, (like my guitar Betsy you see in the pix above these words.),traveling from place to place, or just sitting around my apartment in my wedding gown and other odd clothing I've got sitting in my wardrobe. My other women's clothing I own includes Amish bonnets, strapped rubber swim caps, vinyl/polyurathane rain coats/smocks (seven of these things as of this writing), two more wedding gowns (I don't wear them anymore), a mess of other veils and bridal headpieces, a gold nylon shower cap (?) w/vinyl inside, and even a burqa veil from Afghanistan that conceals my whole body from mid-shin on up! 

 

 

Big Mama is my favorite wedding Gown I bought off of E-bay in early September. She is a size 16 Korean-made National Gowns gown made (I estimate ) late seventies to early eighties. She has large puffy sleeves, a seven-foot train (cathredral length), and tons of pearls, sequins, and alecon lace embroidery. (She keeps shedding these darned sequins all over my apartment's floor. I even found one of those things at my work place once!)

I like to think of her as the Boeing 747 of my wardrobe! Oh yeah, she has a large opening on her back. (perfect for those late-July heat waves!)

Believe or not I've worn her over a hundred times and she still looks in fine condition!
