Auntie Em Fancy Dress Costume Dress - Beige - Floral - Size 22
Drawing the StorylineNo doubt you have heard the legends of the girl who flew over the rainbow and...Drawing the StorylineNo doubt you have heard the legends of the girl who flew over the rainbow and found her way deep into the magical land of Oz where grand adventures, witch killing, flower smelling, and friend-making were occurring in a matter of minutes. We all know the look of those ruby slippers, the golden bubble that held Glinda, and the green skin and flying broomstick of the Wicked Witch of the West. We might even remember the face of the Emerald Lord, the Wizard… and we’re talking the real face, not the giant one that floated in front of the curtain! But, just because you know that story doesn’t mean that you know the whole tale! After all, Dorothy left behind a number of people for a long while. It isn’t like all her family just sat there quietly and patiently waiting for her return. Sure, you’re thinking, ’But, that was all a dream!’ But, the real trick of the ruby slippers was sending the lass back in time to before she even left! The real story shows her family pushing through the tornado valley on the hunt for their darling gal! Details & DesignSo, it is time for Auntie Em to finally get her day in the sun and you can give it to her with this Auntie costume. The beige dress and wig might not be the most extravagant of looks but, then again, neither was the pre-Oz Kansas! Then again, it was Made by Us so you know you'll get plenty of wear out of it. Ending with a TwistA calico dress, an apron, a bonnet. What's more "auntie-esque" than this image? Accessorize further with the right square rim glasses or high heel witch boots and… wait… witch boots!? Are we missing something here!? Up the AuntieHave you ever wondered what would happen if Auntie Em would have gotten sucked up in that twister rather than Dorothy? For one, she probably wouldn't have put up with the munchkin's nonsense for very along. All that singing and dancing when a lady is laying dead under her house? Oh no. Then, when that frivolous good witch came in and told Auntie Em she needed to skip through the whole country in heals, that would have been a double no. Auntie Em comes from hard-working pioneer stock and she would know you can't just ask some green guy on a throne to solve all your problems. Yep, Auntie Em might not have made friends, skipped through a field of poppies, or seen the Emerald City but we're quite sure she would have been home a lot faster than Dorothy. That's just how Auntie Em rolls. Details & DesignJust like Auntie Em, we worked hard to make this costume just right! Our designers kept it simple, a calico pattern dress with a matching bonnet and loose sleeves to keep you comfortable on the Kansas prairie. The look is finished off with a neat white apron to keep you ready for whatever chores need doing. Finish off your look with a gray wig and a pair of spectacles and you'll be ready to keep Dorothy in line!Twister and ShoutAuntie Em isn't painted in the nicest light, in fact, she's usually shown in black and white. But really, we don't think it's fair. This lady is pragmatic. She wants her niece to stay safe. She wants her crabby neighbor lady to stay happy. And in the meantime, she's got to do laundry by hand and bake bread from scratch. So when a twister is on the horizon, let loose with a loud holler cause that's when Auntie Em really gets to vent!
