The very first memories of my life are of me wanting to wear a dress.
My Mom was making dresses for her and my older sister for a special occasion (the only time she has ever done such a thing). I was very young, pre-school probably 3 or 4. I thought they were so beautiful and wanted to wear one so badly. When they were finished she had them hanging on her bedroom door. I remember standing up under the dress as if I were wearing it. In my mind I was.
I was wearing that beautiful dress.

As school (Catholic) started, I felt they were making a terrible mistake. My hair should have been longer, and I should have been wearing the the girl's uniform: a navy blue jumper, white blouse and white pinafore. At that age the only difference, that I knew, between a girl and a boy, was the way they dressed and the length of the hair.
I never told anyone I thought they were making a mistake. Even at age 5, I must have known that I couldn't express those feelings.

The rest of my life would be spent wanting to wear those dresses and many, many more.

2011
I am very happy (and proud) to say that of the 70 plus Dresses, Gowns and Outfits contained in these pages all but one (excluding Archives ,early 90's photos) were worn out to a park, a mall, a restaurant, a bar or a formal occasion. Even the nightgowns were worn to a pajama party or two.
Any guesses as to which outfit never made it outside the house?
