“Marilyn Monroe satisfies The Magic institution Bus”

That’s exactly how Susan (DrSue on Pattern Review) explained this dress. (If you don’t understand The Magic institution Bus, ask any type of elementary-school student.)

You see, this is what I like about sewing. You want a purple lemur halter dress? You can get a purple lemur halter dress. (First, catch your purple lemurs … ) Can you picture walking into Macy’s (or even that bastion of client service, Nordstrom’s) as well as telling a saleslady you are looking for something in a purple lemur pattern? They’d be recounting that story in the break space for the next three YEARS. however if you can sew, you can have your purple lemur dress, no problem, as well as no raised-saleslady-eyebrows, either.

I would *especially* like to point out exactly how DrSue arranged the arms of the lemurs to be part of the halterneck. Now, that’s loving interest to detail! Ms. Frizzle would be so proud.
