Ditto that, Sharon, your closet full of tutus sounds wonderful! A custom corset - I wouldn't have thought of that.
Here's what I have in addition to antique nightgowns:
-Kimonos (not enough of them)
-Capes
-Long evening gloves, including fingerless ones
-Old hats
-Piano shawls, scarves, big bolts of fabric for wrapping things (and people)
-Collection of bird wings in the freezer
-18th century British naval officer white pants (just joking on that one, sorry, couldn't resist)
I also have a network of friends who are authorized to snap up things for me (maximum purchase price, twenty dollars) that they think I might like in their forays into the world of Neat Old Stuff. What I really want right now is a fantastic portrait chair.
