When Evangeline was 8 years old,
she found a diary in one of the many dressers in the attic. Since then she has kept a day by day account of her life.When she found the diary there were only two entries in it.The first entry was written on the day of her birth but not signed by anyone. The other entry didn't come until April 24, 1928. it simply said; Happy Birthday Evangeline.
She still hasn't figured out who wrote it. I

Dressed Doll Evangeline - New!
Whether writing in my diary, walking Mouette, or picnicking in the cemetery, I always feel simply ghastly when wearing my beautiful black lace gown featuring a black velvet eyelash jacket with chiffon laced trimmed sleeves over a black spider web embroidered lace, with a chiffon overskirt. I wear it with my favorite black velvet pumps, choker with beaded accents, and matching lace umbrella, (a must-have for my delicate, pale skin). My long black wig and beautiful life-like eyes make for a very dramatic look, although no one ever seems to notice. Evangeline is 19” tall, ball jointed, and crafted entirely of custom-poured fine resin. #221-101 $450 LE 750 |
March 5, 1944 - Cemetery Chic (outfit only) Feeling bored earlier today, I made the perfect outfit for a cemetery stroll. I found a beautiful purple brocade bodice embellished with chiffon and beaded accents in one of the armoires. I paired it with a shantung skirt with crystal pleated flounce, delicate beaded fringe accent, and velvet ribbon bows down the back of the skirt. Befitting any dreary day, the gauntlets are purple mesh with grommet and lace-up closures. And because I just never know who I’ll bump into, the ensemble is complete with a beaded choker, stockings, and lace-up boots. #223-101 $125 LE 300 |
July 5, 1944 - Tea & Sympathy (outfit only) Working at the mortuary has its benefits, and afternoon tea with Mr. Mort is certainly one of them. Today I wore this beautiful red and black brocade ensemble with a lace-up front corset over a delicate chiffon blouse and angel sleeves. The skirt is red lace over black lining with a black ruffle hem, which I found in the attic. To complete the look, I put on red and black peep toe shoes, a black ribbon necklace with rhinestone charm, and sheer stockings. Mr. Mort should be impressed. #223-102 $125 LE 300

"The weather on the night of Evangeline's birth was as expected. The wind was howling, the moon was full, and the doctor was unavailable." And so begins the story of Evangeline Ghastly. With a mysterious
diary entry, a pet skunk named Mouette, and fashions straight out of a
Victorian novel, Evangeline is definitely.....a whole other story!
She keeps a day by day account of her life through her diary,
which she’s had for as long as she can remember. Every year on her birthday
Evangeline writes in her diary the same thing "Maybe next year". What does
it
She has never figured out who wrote it. I never said she was the
smartest of girls.
