Sir John Tenniel illustrations that we most identify with the story...oh sure...Disney wrecked it tho it is a charming movie...it's old school Disney.......
No.
The real Alice is Tenniel......like this:
But I saw theeeeeese the other day....and wow.
click this Linkie for more......
Imagine my delight ! when I found this dress last year....in a thrift of course. It's a 90s babydoll....just barely vintage in about 5 more minutes......covered with Sir John Tenniel illustrations !!! oh yes.
I'll be wearing this in Portland this weekend...
I found this ...thing...what is it? a tablecloth? an antimacassar? I don't know...
It's a Hitatchi thingie....(its also says Castle)
I adore the illustrations, the secondary gothy colors, the whole mid 60s pop art take on Art Nouveau...
it's pen and ink line drawings like the Sir John Tenniel drawings.....with those lovely colors.....
it's just a length of white cotton with fringe at either end....
It's just big enough to make a bit of a skirt
...add some white lace and other gothy White Queen stuff.......
Gee, I do believe I have my whole Fall theme all lined up......
stay tuned funkoma fans and etsy shop buyers.......
I think it might be Alice I want.... is a Wonderland....kind of season...

Tenniel all the way! What fab finds you have there.
The other "portraits" are just a bit too creepy for me. The Mad Hatter looks like Carrot Top. (Who also creeps me out!)
ha! I soooo agree. I love the Depp, but all the cgi/computer stuff...I don't like the Mad Hatter.oh,yes, it looks like Carrot Top (ewwwww). I do think I'll like it, tho. I love fantasy...I must..I live in Tacoma, where I imagine I live in the capitol of a glamourous European kingdom !
