Gnomes in Summer

August 13, 2009 by Mary Jane 4 Comments

I’d like to thank the Carter Twins, Anabel and Eliza, for being the most fantastic models at the Penobscot Marine Museum’s Nautical Fashion and Variety Show. Patient during a long day of rehearsals and then the show itself, which was for the participants mostly “hurry up and wait” in a stifling backstage. When their moment came, the girls were true professionals, workin’ it!

The show  included great fashions from the likes of local gals Beth Bowley (her shop: 412) and Mad Girl herself Meredith Alex, and others, as well as some fabulous historic costumes, the authentic sailors garb, was A-mazing! Big thanks to Polly Saltonstall who pulled the whole extravaganza off, and was herself a beautiful bold Mermaid!

I managed to forget to take pictures, so these above are from Eliza’s and Anabel’s mom’s cell phone.
