But it has to be from afar because of those aforementioned crazy prices, haha.<br />You're very right, and I agree; certain novelty prints (especially the ones created by actual artists) ARE works of art!Emileigh https://www.blogger.com/profile/13683866769745929646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7382754892322119466.post-26991455056409665352014-07-17T16:22:49.272-05:002014-07-17T16:22:49.272-05:00An OKAPI print?!

I bought it probably a year ago because I just loved the print and didn't know when it would show up again, but it has shown up again at a cheaper price:P But, oh well, I figure it all evens out. I just also got a "Love Letters" skirt in a different color. I would love a novelty skirt of Paris and Vegas because these hold special places in my heart. The thing I like about certain novelty prints is that they are like walking works of art. I would have majored in art history in school if it would have paid the bills:) They are so much fun and so interesting to see all these prints. Also, 1940s rayon novelty prints are very expensive now. I find I can still get a 50s novelty skirt for $50 or under but not rayon novelty dresses:) Great post!Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16439393534029787165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7382754892322119466.post-19252530786672018222014-07-17T11:55:27.087-05:002014-07-17T11:55:27.087-05:00I started collecting novelty print skirts 10 years...I started collecting novelty print skirts 10 years ago, and I'm glad I did because now the prices are crazy!

It isn't something I've seen much of before. I think I would like ones that feature some of my favourite unusual animals (on which note, I just found an Okapi print fabric that is fabulous!). Also, I have a Groucho Marx print shirt, and I have yet to see any other Marx Brothers fabrics, which I think is a shame!Tanithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09915557658875958630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7382754892322119466.post-91614554838958859782014-07-16T16:57:47.691-05:002014-07-16T16:57:47.691-05:00I actually just read that post, and it's fabul...I actually just read that post, and it's fabulous!

Darn!<br /><br />I shop all the time at Wanderlust, the shop that has the royalty skirt, so I've seen it in person, and it's super adorable!<br /><br />And what a question to pose to your readers!
