The Boy in the Dress

Forgot the demands of primary school, it's been soooo long since we've had any young children around.

Fosterling says he needs an outfit for David Walliams Day at school.
Well I know who he is but never knew he wrote books!
And he wants to dress up as The Boy in the Dress.
Serious research ........ well okay, I asked friends on facebook.
So this is the book.

 

 Wig and football socks easy.

Dress was a white one from H & M that I dyed orange. I actually love the fact that the dye didn't take to every type of material on the dress, adds a bit of interest to what otherwise would have been wholly orange.

And the shoes - well they were never going to be a problem were they? 

End result - and yes both fosterling and me were completely impressed - so was the school as he won best costume :)
