I Dream of... ?  Or Harem Scarem?  Patsy & Mike model the matching genie outfits I made for them.

     1985 (?)      

John Kelso of the Austin American-Statesman wrote, "A rather large fellow with a moustache
sambaed the night away in a lime green gown with huge hoops that made the outfit about
2-1/2 yards wide.  He had a basket of flowers on his head...." In the photo on the left, you
can see the helium-filled balloons which were given to me upon my arrival; they helped to
balance/lighten the hat.  On the right, Nat and Jose are in the front and Mike & Liz are in the back .
Although they claimed to have had a good time, Mike & Liz never went to another Carnaval...ever!
Gee...was it the matching 1"+ green eyelashes?  The matching bloomers?  The shiny silver boots?
The rowdy crowds that traditionally spew beer over anyone on the dance floor?
