Cristobal’s Collection

This post is a showcase of the wonderful swag that we received at the Golden Gate Glamour convention. This collection was inspired by the fabulous fashions of Cristobal Balenciaga.

“Cristobal’s Collection” (to include as many outfits as possible in this photo, I added two sheaths and a long skirt.)

I bought this same book at the DeJung Museum

This Jacket was one of the favorites among the convention attendees. I heard several woman wish that they had one in their own wardrobe.

We were so happy to receive our own jacket for our dolls. Our jacket is lined in black and is reversible. It can be worn with or without a belt.

I love this photo with the book.

This outfit was made by using the black top, black straight skirt, black bubble skirt, green wrap, and hat.

My favorite outfit of the collection is this blue print sheath with accessories.

I love the detachable hip bow.

I put the bow on the neck for a different look.

The last outfit of the convention was this evening ensemble.

This outfit includes the lace blouse, long straight skirt, floral belt, and white fur wrap.

The peach silk train is a different look.

The hat is adorable.

We also received this evening coat.

Sandra did a great job recreating this flower hat.

I don’t have a fashion sleuth picture for this coat and hat yet.

Look at all the possibilities!

I hope to add more photos soon.

When I got home with all my new stuff, I put it all away without making a list of the whole collection, so I asked on the “Studio Commissary” if anyone had kept track of all of our swag. Thank you Kelly Ryan for this list!
