Dress-in-a-Jar (1972)

Dress-in-a-Jar (1972)

Illustrated by Dena Blankmeyer. The "fictional" mail-order Dress-in-a-Jar kit let you paint on a dress, including sleeves, or not! You're the painter, you decide. To this we say, if it didn't really happen, it was only because the idea was 20 years before its time. As evidence, check out Demi Moore who wore a painted "suit" on the cover of Vanity Fair in 1992!
