Happy New Year Norma - a photostory

Tecla invited Enrico to her New Years Eve party. He was dubious but I convinced him: I sew  him  a tuxedo with tails, so he obliged.....


It looks like there are no other guests.

Enrico: It looks like I'm a bit early. When are the other guests supposed to arrive?
Tecla: Which other guests?

Enrico: It's going to be a very long evening, I better get drunk soon!

Tecla: Da'aling, how would you like to dance?

Enrico: Uh, dance?!?!? OMG


Tecla: you dance awfully!
Enrico: I know......



Tecla: I think we better rest a bit

Enrico: Finally!

Tecla: We're having such a great time, aren't we?
Enrico: I hope you have a huge provision of martinis

Enrico: Well, it's 10 pm and Tecla just passed away....Happy New year!!!!!

Enrico is going to sneak off and drop at Odette&Carlo's place...coming next!

the fashions are of course inspired by Edit Head's Sunset Boulevard costumes



And if you want to try your hand at a tuxedo jacket, here's the pattern!


Happy new year !!!!!

    1. Hi April, I take no credit for the storyline, all the credit goes to the wonderful Mr Wilder&Brackett! Tecla has got the misfortune of being a dead ringer for Gloria Swanson, poor thing.....
      I'm completely into men clothes, this tuxedo is not as perfect as I wished, but it looks good, and that's the trick, you know.....
      now I look forward for your uber-fashionable clothes for the guys!
      Happy New Year April!
