Knock Out Knock Offs .....Gowns of the Stars.......

Over the last few years Jim has been putting together a collection of 'knock off' garments... reproductions of famous garments from film, magazine, and television.  We're pleased to share photos of this collection.  Several of the photos shown here are from the gallery collection of "movie star and celebrity" gowns featured at the "Original Sewing and Quilt Expo"  where the gowns may be viewed in person (on mannequins as well as in the live stage presentation).
