Default constructing a rubberised satin inflatable bavarian crinolie dress

hi everyone
i am now starting the consturction of one of the biggest dresses that
we have ever made
its a rubberised satin inflatable bavarian crinoline dress,and we are
using a medium rubberised satin to consturct the dress , as the dress
itself will be filled with air, so all the seams will have to be really
airtight
i have made countleaa inflatable crinolines
the air gives the shape to the dress, and makes it so light to wear.,
but this is really the biggest ive ever done
at 17 ft dia,
its for a ladie wedding and will be enormous skirt wise, with ppuffwd
sleeves and new inflatable bodice to take the eaist in to replace the
traditional corset and the dress will be i hope another big success,
including a lot of new features on itwe are having to use rubberised
satin
as we cannot get the ovc backed satin like we used to anymore

Oh my gosh that sounds like the MOST incredible thing I have ever
heard of...actually never heard of such a thing before in my
life.....and yet you make it sound so relatively "normal"
and....someone is getting married in a dress that is going to from
what I understand "inflate to a diameter of 17 feet!!!" Is this a
"themed" wedding of some sort or a custom somewhere or something .....
I have just never heard of such a thing and feel "out of the loop" and
truly would just love to see a picture. Because honestly, I can't
even begin to picture what such an amazing dress would look like.
Please share!

So this is for a wedding at sea? Sort of a variation on the 'she
died, so we're having a viking funeral, with a burial at sea' theme?
I can dig it. Does the heroine sail off into the sunset? Alone? Or
does the groom have his own inflatable regalia? Does he paddle a canoe
after her, longingly chasing his rubber-inflated bride, driven hither
and thither by wafting southerly breezes?
Forever longing, forever pining, unable to catch the woman of his
dreams...sounds like the perfect romance, to me.

It would be perfect for those shy, reluctant brides.

Are there still girls that qualify for that label? Anywhere? Hmm.

It has great possibilities, does it not? A bride in a 17' inflatable,
waterproof garment should have no problems with family planning. Perhaps
this is a new direction for population control to explore?

Love it, Joanne!!
ohh, all right, Karen, you make me tell this one: snippet over-heard on
a tv. talk show:
"I've only had sex with three men, so that makes me almost a virgin."
HUH??? And what, I am forced to ask, what about extra-virgin
Italian olive oil? Inquiring minds...

The 'extra virgin' is a bonus for buying the regular sort isn't it?
