Lucky Stripe

This is another old AD outfit that I have kept. It is really nicely made as it is an earlier AD outfit and the bag is one of my favourites in the whole Gene line; a little circular drum bag in black satin.

The directors chair is also from the AD line of accessories ... those accessories were fabulous and I still have a lot of them. I never did buy any of the furniture due to cost/space purposes but it is really cool.

'Vixen' Gene is modelling the complete 'Lucky Stripe' outfit comprising of dress, picture hat, red gloves, black suede peep-toe slingback heels, drum bag and jet drop earrings. Here is the wording from the Storycard:

"Lucky Stripe is a smartly-tailored afternoon ensemble, circa 1949. The square-necked dress is horizontally striped in black and taupe with long sleeves and a narrow knee-length skirt. To enhance the slim line, Gene's skirt is asymmetrically draped onto one hip with a falling panel of vertical stripes. A large, uniquely styled, black satin hat matches the black satin drum-shaped purse, with a golden bead closure and golden detail on the handle. Short red gloves bring a flash of colour. Outfit includes "onyx" tear-drop earrings and black sling-back shoes."
