Space Opera and Narnia, I haven't forgotten y'all - I'm still thinking about your outfits.
Annie, dark blue is fine. Not a royal or even navy, though, but a very dark, deep blue that is almost black.
Hobbes, there's not much that could top your own pelt, but it really doesn't go with Annie's dress. You wouldn't want to detract from her allure, would you?
fallow, I would go with Yahoo for posting pics. Check out the directions I gave to Space Opera on the first page of this thread.

Well, since I didn't win any awards, I don't know that I need to dress up for the event, but I would love Mrs. M's input anyway...
There are full-length photos of me Here and Here taken about a year ago.
You have to adjust for the fact that I'm very large busted, but I don't necessarily want to flaunt that at all. (plus I have a chest tattoo I may not want to show).
My favorite color to wear is forest green, or other solid or darker greens.
So what can you find that I can wish for?

(maybe at KamaCon we should truly have a dress-up night, wouldn't that be fun?)

Its my hair. Seriously. Male Patter Baldness has chosen the ugliest pattern to sit on my head. Bald in the back, and two sides, the front still has a unicorn horn of tuft growing.
Besides shaving it all off, any suggestions?

Well, if I can't wear jeans and a T-shirt, I'll just be traditional and wear a black tux. But no tie!

I like long dresses, mostly because I hate my legs. And I always, always choose awful shoes, so I like to cover them up. I have blue eyes, and blue tends to work pretty well on me. But I don't really know what I'm doing, so hey.

Mrs. M., you rock my world! I'm fond of dressing up for parties and things, but in most situations, I'm very natural and simple. I'm not afraid to wear things that require panache to pull off - for instance, I wear a wool cloak rather than a winter coat. I am very bad at doing my own hair, and it NEVER stays in hairdo thingies, not even if my hairdresser puts it up. I'm likely to get my shoes filthy, because I'll climb trees or walk by creeks even in my fancy clothes. I never wear sandals because I have issues with my ugly feet and hairy toes. I do, however, like to go bare-legged and without undies on occasion. I like to be able to run in whatever I'm wearing, be it short or long. I think my legs are pretty, even when I choose not to shave them. I have absolutely no cleavage, due to a protruding sternum, and I'm rather self-conscious about that. My chest is slightly smaller than my hips, and my waist is tiny. I am not quite an hourglass figure because of the small chest. I buy clothes for myself made of wool, thick cotton, flannel, and other soft fabrics. I dislike things that wrinkle, because I don't get along with my iron.

Hey Mrs M. - huge thankyou - I've been trying to figure out how I could post some photos for ages - you're a star - I've managed to get mine on but for some reason now can't access any of your links to see suggestions for everyone else - *sulks*

Oh, whoops! I don't think I've been invited to the Rackademy Awards. I wasn't nominated for anything. Can I still dress up?

Wow, leave for twenty-four hours and look what happens...
Mrs. M, I REALLY like that shade of pink. That with the embroidery was my idea of 'whimsy'. Maybe I used the wrong word.
*pulls out trusy black shrug* This should look nice with it.
What would you suggest for hair/makeup? My hair's a bit shorter than the pic, a little past shoulder-length, but I pull it back with minimal problems. If you link to beaded jewlery I can make noises like 'I can figure out how to replicate that!'
Jenny, you HAVE to come! I'll be so sad if you don't!

Why don't you just tie on a bow in the same color as Annie's dress? And you could paint your claws in a shiny color.

Dan, I happen to find baldness very attractive. I had a serious crush on Anthony Edwards when he was on ER and I had a MAJOR crush on my Skepticism prof, who looked just like him but was much smarter. I recommend keeping your remaining hair quite short - about 1 inch long, especially in the back and on the sides. I think balding is a good look on you.
I'm still looking through the Spring and Fall RTW collections, but I do have some things in mind for everyone.

Heck yeah! I know that on the carpet I'll be doing nothing but asking everyone who they think will get best couple or best dobie or what have you. Posts: 4089 | Registered: Apr 2003

Space Opera, we can make the front panel a little more opaque or sew the top layer a bit.
FG, I only found one green dress and it wasn't you. I know you love green, but what about this one? I think it would be stunning on you (the model has your coloring).
Brinestone, if you're not sure, then it's not the dress for you. With dresses, it should be love at first site. I think the dress is pretty, but I'm not sure about the color on you.

Ayelar, I think this one would suit you. I love it - it's so pretty and fun and it would really make you glow. However, you will have to wear really beautiful high heels (dyed to match the dress).

Mmm. After a bit of poking, I discovered that they actually carry that line at Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, and Saks fifth. No clue what retail price is
But you could always look at ebay! I'm a little tempted, too.
Edit: Though eBay does feel a little like Rolexes on the streets of NYC.

I am about five foot. Medium brown slightly wavy (can be convinced to curl) hair that falls mid back. I am a curvy size 12, with a fairly large chest and hips, but a little waist, almost an hour-glass figure. I love purples and pinks. My eyes are dark brown. I would like to try a nice classic looking tea length dress but anything would work really. My prom dress is bright pink, long and fairly straight with a straight neckline (though a more heart shaped one would look better) and thin satin cord straps. It is beaded. That just gives you some ideas on what I already have. Thanks for the help Mrs. M.

Mrs. M., no need for alterations on my gown. Mr. Opera was speaking about the bottom and had his mind in the gutter/bedroom. I told him I could wear it at home once the ceremonies have concluded.

Wow! kaioshin00 is a cutie! Too bad I'm not 20 years younger...
That IS a cool dress, AJ (that you linked to). Wouldn't work on me, but I really like the style.
Mrs. M -- you really should do this for a living. You have no idea how many totally clueless people there are out there in the world. (I'm one of them)

Mrs. M., you have supremely good taste. I think Hobbes would look quite tasty in the suit you picked out for him. (Lucky Annie!) I trust your judgement!
