One Dress a Day Challenge
February: Orange Redux
Gypsy / Natalie Wood as Louise Hovick (Gypsy Rose Lee)
This film takes place during the 1920s, but there's nothing particularly 20s about this costume--and they weren't even trying when it came to the hair. Still, it's appropriately showbiz-ish in looks.
She starts out with a loose, short "crop top" over the dress, but that comes off as part of the act. The ribbon and beading at the waist, ending in the long, dangling threads in front, are the main decorative element on the underlayer.
This film was one of the last for legendary designer Orry-Kelly. He worked on more than 300 films dating back to the dawn of the talkies.

I’ve watched “Gypsy” and that’s a very interesting and a pretty unusual old musical telling the story of the famous burlesque actress Gypsy Rose Lee and her mother. I don’t know if it’s historically correct, as I got it the musical was based on her memoir and I suppose it’s just enough. The story has a pretty simple beginning– the mother of the main character, who wants to realize her own unfulfilled wishes and dream in her daughters – at first in the younger one, but then, (Spoilers!) she runs away with a boy from the show (she was thirteen at the time…) and the mother decided that now she’d make her elder daughter a star and she tries, but it doesn’t really work out because she just wants to have her younger daughter back and so at first tries to make Louise (the real name of the elder daughter) look like the younger one. Then they make a show a little more organic and fitting to the main “star”, but it’s still not good. When they came to the city they found out that the theatre in which there were going to perform is actually a burlesque theatre. They were ready to leave – it’s inappropriate! – but they stayed for the money. Then, when one of the strippers was taken to the police (or whatever) the mother made Louise take her place and so she becomes Gypsy Rose Lee and then – a star – one of the most famous strippers in the whole US. Well, she still has conflicts with her mother because she wants to live her life and mother still wants to control her, but they settle this and reconciled at the very end. I enjoyed it a lot, the music is great, some of the dancing numbers are interesting, the plot – is very unusual for an old classical musical, after all, it’s all about family and has almost no romantical part.

The story of Gypsy’s life is a fable before Broadway bills it as such, a myth she wants to sell not only to the public but to herself. Once upon a time there was a girl with many names: Ellen June, Rose Louise, Plug, Hard-boiled Rose, Louise Hovick, and the one she liked best, Gypsy Rose Lee. She would grow up and wear that name as if it were a cape made of orchids, a vision no one had seen before, and try to forget everything she did to make it fit just right.
The story means everything to her, especially since she is no longer living it.

it’s weird how the story of Gypsy Rose Lee is seen as tragic (a girl forced by her mother to perform from a very young age, ends up stripping in order to keep making money)
and yet the adaptation of her memoir focuses so heavily on her childhood, meaning that young children are performing in this role, the cause of which could be the same (they’re being forced to perform by their parents) and the result of which could be the same too (they take on skimpier/sexier roles as adults because that’s all that’s available to adult actresses)
the ‘93 TV movie version has Elisabeth Moss as Young Louise Hovick (GRL’s original name) and then later was in Mad Men and The Handmaid’s Tale......

Stephanie is way too young to play Mama Rose
Except… she isn’t?
Rose Hovick was only 64 at the time of her death. She was 21 and 22 when she had Louise and June. Louise was in at least her 20′s when she started stripping meaning that Rose was in at least her 40′s. Therefore Stephanie is in the perfect age range for Rose (Stephanie is 46)
However, in my personal opinion, Rose can be played by anyone who is 40+ and can sing the score.

Burlesque Series: Gypsy Rose Lee
Burlesque Series: Gypsy Rose Lee
Born into relative poverty, with her younger sister June Havoc being a star by the age of two-and-a-half, Rose Louise Hovick was considered the less talented sister in her family. Her mother wanted her daughters to have careers in show business, and while “Louise” (as she was known) performed acceptably, June excelled – she was quickly a star, and the main breadwinner in a family with a rotating…

So here’s what I’m thinking of doing (and of course, I would love the input of my followers)
I feel like my blog, currently, is too cluttered. Too many muses on one blog, all of which I want to play, but people following and then me asking which muses they’re interested in, me often not getting a response, me sending in memes and them not being interested, etc. I owe a lot of replies, which I’ll get to, but I think right now I’m stuck in a rut because of the things listed above, and I think I might have come up with a solution to this rut. 
I’m thinking of dividing my muses into two blogs. inacciaio would still be a blog of mine, but it would be my multi-fandom muse. Meanwhile, I would move some of my more historically based muses, along with some new ones, onto a new blog. Along with this, inacciaio would have what I like to think of as a soft reset. 
This soft reset would still include some threads I’ve grown particularly attached to, such as the ones from @libxrtaspxpuli @the-direct-descendant @killersoflycans (and her various other blogs) @animusviincit and @leftbehindtheperfectcrime. All other storylines will either be continued in new threads, or have new storylines altogether, depending on preferences. This soft reset would also have inacciaio moved to a new tumblr blog, but with the same url, the same theme, pages, etc. Essentially, it would be a fresh canvas, but with some etchings of the past. Hence a “soft” reset rather than a complete one. I’ll also be removing some muses, at least at first, for purposes of time. This new inacciaio would include the muses:
Semira (Underworld) Emily (Underworld oc) Gothel (Tangled/Into the Woods/other Rapunzel fairy tales) Franziska von Karma (Ace Attorney) Sally Stageplay (Cuphead) Regina Mills (Once Upon a Time) Fiore (historically based personification oc)
My new new blog would have my historical muses, along with new ones, so I can know that people who follow that blog have an interest in playing with historical or historically based muses. I’ve always had a particular focus on historical fiction, so I want to give these muses their own blog. In particular, the blog would start with:
Ann Fleming Clarice Orsini Lucille Frank Louise “Gypsy Rose Lee” Hovick Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowden Maddalena de’ Medici Fiore (historically based personification oc) Marigold (historically based personification oc)
And yes, I’m keeping Fiore on both blogs, because I have threads with people on Fiore who I’m not sure if they would want to follow my second blog, but I also want to place Fiore and Marigold with other historical blogs/blogs that are interested in roleplaying with historical fiction muses. I haven’t gotten the same attention with Marigold, so I’ll place her on my historical fiction multimuse.
I’m not dropping anyone who follows me. It’s just that some people who follow me may have either lost interest, or gone inactive, or only have interest in some of my muses, (so me having two blogs gives not full choice, but at least more choice than there was before), or there are people that I follow and they don’t follow me back for whatever reason. I would post links to both of my new blogs on this one so that anyone who wants to follow can follow. You could follow one blog, or both, or neither, the choice is yours.
So this is my idea of what I could do. If you think it’s a good idea, bad idea, if you have any better ideas to improve upon this one, please let me know, and I’ll take everything said into consideration. I may still go through with this idea in a few weeks regardless, or I may not if someone makes a really convincing argument of why I shouldn’t, but I would love to hear input from my followers either way. I’ll reblog this a few times for a few weeks and make my decision by the end of that time.
