I’m still in shock.

This dress is the sartorial equivalent of the Biggest Loser. Because it used to look like this…

How’d my tailor work that magic?

Well, she lopped off the sleeves, widened the collar and removed the old-lady lace and tie-dyed appliques. So now it’s pure country-chic.

She also, of course, shortened the hem so it’s the appropriate length for chasing a Bear.

Not that it helped me catch him. That yellow lab is quick.
P.S. I’m going to be lecturing at Simon Fraser University so from now on I’m only going to respond to “Professor”.
