Meet my new friend. I haven’t named her yet but open to suggestions 😉. I’d been looking for a vintage taylor’s mannequin for a year or so to help me photograph some of my longer necklaces. I’d not found one I really liked or in my budget (have you seen the price of these things?) until on a whim on Monday I checked Facebook marketplace. This beauty was only 20 minutes drive to another village in Lincolnshire and reduced from £80 to £50! I’m in love. Looking online she’s circa 1920’s made by Buste Gerard Paris size 42. Her linen cover is in great condition and naturally has some marks but that all adds to the character. Isn’t she great? She’s a perfect addition to my new studio and sits pride of place next to that embroidery thread cabinet I refurbished recently. . . . #vintagemannequin #vintagetaylor #taylorsdummy #facebookmarketplace #marketplacebargains #thriftyfinds #vintagelove #bustegerardparis #parismannequin #aneyeforabargain #linenmannequin #meanttobe #dressmaker #dressmakersdummy (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CelFdAQLNIc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
