Decorating Old Dress Forms

P1010055a

Aren't these old dress forms ready to hit that Victorian Christmas party? I saw these in a store window display and had to share them with you. LOVE the mink and berries around the neck and the big red sash at the waist. Best of all is the skirt....now isn't that just a hoot?
