Every Holiday season, we volunteer to decorate a room or two at Centerport's beautiful Vanderbilt Mansion. We love creating in a place of such history and splendor right here in our own backyard. This year we chose Rosamond Vanderbilt's dressing room and created an appropriate decoration for such a space...
Our Christmas Dress built upon Mrs. Vanderbilt's dress form for the Vanderbilt Museum Twilight Christmas Tour.
Constructed of chicken wire, greenery, pine cones, crystals and Christmas ornaments. A blue velvet mannequin cover was created to match the colors in Mrs. V's dressing room.
The fireplace in the Mrs. Vanderbilt's dressing room was topped with a simple green garland and draped in crystals to compliment the chandeliers in the room and on the necklace on the Christmas Dress.
