Fun fact: did you know that in the 1920s, it was the bee’s knees to feature flowers in menswear advertising? Gus, here, has been challenged to model an electric twist on classic style - and evoke vintage charm at the same time, for the latest #dollslifemagazine! Check out the new edition here! There are some really lovely interviews this month!!!
Gus is at the barn, doing a little late morning pony polishing. It may be freezing cold, but Barry, the Hackney pony, is already starting to think about shedding.
I just added a new pattern to the shop, designed by special request, but available to all! These rugged, roomy overalls are hand-sewing friendly, and can hold their own, against whatever wear and tear Gus, Sinatra, and Barry the pony, can throw at them. The pattern can be found here.
Gus and Sinatra are having a paw-sitively grrr-eat Palentine’s Day! I hope you all are having a lovely Valentine’s Day too!
Here is my 2nd photo for the #adriandollslifekenchallenge, celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Ken doll!! Ken was first introduced as the ideal boyfriend for Barbie. However, it takes a village to make a perfect boyfriend, and Gus, here, is ready to pitch in and give Ken an earful of advice, about what to wear on a romantic date with Barbie. As a model, Gus has had first hand experience with all sorts of outfits, and he’s got plenty to say, on the topic of style! The February #adriandollslifekenchallenge theme is “the perfect boyfriend.”
Wishing a very Happy Birthday, and Instagram anniversary, to the amazing photographer, artist, journalist, friend, and all-around inspiration, @adrian.dollslife!!! Gus and Lucian are celebrating in Gus’ greenhouse with a pot of hot green tea. Lucian baked a double raspberry chocolate cake from a favorite family recipe, and Gus decorated it for the occasion, with fresh berries. They’ll be sure you get a generous piece.
I’m excited to announce that I just published the pattern for my polo and classic rugby shirt designs! Gus, here, is modeling the different shirt styles included in the pattern. It’s hand-sewing friendly, and can be found at the Tiny Apparel Pattern Shop!
