I needed a dress for our upcoming Monte Carlo Night fundraiser. The theme is "Flappers & Bathtub Gin." Being on a tight budget, I went to eBay to look for something inexpensive. My keyword search of "1920s, flapper, mermaid dress" turned up this little number. Seriously. Scales and jets and hundreds of pleats. On one dress. Which is now hanging in my closet.
