Hi, all!
I just got back from the Marl & Joe Show in DC (actually
Tyson's Corner, VA). It was rather smaller than in past years, but nice all the
same. Candi -both Hamilton & Integrity- was well represented. Even some of
Mikelman's new fashions were present... though there weren't many Charices. The
sales table that I enjoyed the most had BarbieR dressed as nuns. This
couple from TN had just about any order you could conceive of represented.
There was one with a headpiece like "the flying nun"; there was one in a pink
habit; there was one like Mother Teresa's order. They even had the Audrey
Hepburn doll done up in both her black habit & her white habit from, "The
Nun's Story". They were incredible; very precise & well researched! I
succumbed to a Surf City Christie dressed in the Missionary of Charity habit
(like Mother Teresa, in white with blue striped trim). I'm thinking of sending
my Audrey Hepburn doll to this lady & get her dressed like "The Nun's
Story"...
Just wanted to share...
Melissa
