Okay, Lodee mentioned a book where we can see in color the various outfits Lucy wore on the show. What book is that?

Also, what other books are available regarding the ILL fashions? I would love to add that to my book collection/and Christmas list.

Are you planning on making some Lucy Ricardo clothes for yourself?

Ohhh, that would be nice. I can't imagine where I would wear them. I could wear that half-skirt here at home when entertaining friends though.

I think you should wear them EVERYWHERE. You'd probably get as much attention as Lucy got with the loving cup on her head.

Yeah I would. Especially if I wore that half-skirt WITHOUT THE PANTS.

You are hung up on those pants aren't you?

I would get more looks walking around my city in those hostess pants than I would if I have a Loving Cup on my head like Lucy.

The book might be "The Official I Love Lucy Paper Dolls," by Allan Glaser and illustrated by Rick Carl. It's around $12.95. It shows some of the more popular outfits and gives info and trivia about the development of the show's wardrobes.

I just wish we could see all the outfits in color!

Yep, that's it. Thanks Madame X. What other outfits were you wondering about? Or is that just more of a general statement?

You know, even though it's called paper dolls I can't imagine anyone cutting it.

I know, I would never think of cutting it!

When I mentioned the other outfits, I was referring to her entire wardrobe. It would be great if someone would or even could publish an encyclopedia-type/reference book about the I Love Lucy wardrobes (Ethel, Ricky and Fred as well).

I would love to see a book that just contained rare/unreleased/behind-the-scenes I Love Lucy still photographs, like an I Love Lucy color picture book. Just because we haven't seen them, doesn't mean that they don't exist, right? I've seen a few. I am talking about ones that were actually shot in color/using color film. I know it would be an extra special treat for fans to see something like this.

Yes, that is what I would love to find.

WELCOME BACK STACY!!!!! SURE GOOD TO KNOW YOU ARE HERE. I GET WORRIED, BELIEVE IT OR NOT. arty:
