Stevie wants to give you one item from her wardrobe ... what do you choose?
 
Stevie wants to give you one (that's ONE!) garment / item of jewellery / accessory from her wardrobe. Tell us what you'd choose -- and why! Because it looked so good on her? Because it would look good on you? Because it has particular significance in her career? Because you associate it with your favourite song or live show? Because you've searched and searched and never found a replica?

I'll get us started -- I choose the tan platform boots. Stevie's boots are simply beautiful things -- the suede is elegant, the heel is neither too thin nor too chunky, they fit her perfectly and they're just the right height. The tan ones are my particular favourite -- they look great with everything and are just as versatile as the black, but are much more interesting. They're a focal point of the outfit, while the black boots simply set it off. I'd love a pair.

I can't find the picture I want to illustrate my point -- but the one I'm looking for is from the Enchanted box set, showing just the boots with ribbons around the calves and the hem of Stevie's red dress just visible. You know the one, someone out there has it!



PS -- Is this just another thinly-veiled excuse to post our favourite pictures? You bet! :blob2:

Her wallet.

holidayroad 02-16-2010 01:15 PM

I choose what she's wearing on the Mirage cover. I've always loved that!!

ButterCookie 02-16-2010 01:20 PM

The red and black dress from the Seven Wonders video. It's my ultimate favourite.

I adore Chris' trouser and sparkly shirt outfit from the video too.

gldstwmn 02-16-2010 01:49 PM

The Gold Dust Woman shawl in my avatar. I'd take the boots but they'd never fit. :(

skcin 02-16-2010 01:53 PM

The boots she wears on the cover of Bella Donna. :D Slouchy legwarmer thingies included, please.

ButterCookie 02-16-2010 01:56 PM

The best bit of this thread is, I'm the same height as Stevie and probably the same dress size as she was in the 80's, so if it were real I'd be able to wear my choice :laugh:

petep9000 02-16-2010 02:07 PM

the garnet beads she wore on the cover of the 'Maybe Love Will Change Your Mind' single (I think they were once owned by Janis Joplin).

Or, that really expensive sapphire bracelet that some fan tossed to her on stage which she got appraised and was worth like 40k.

seeing as I am a man.... and not a Drag queen....

her thong?

Artemis 02-16-2010 02:31 PM

Her tophat! It's so snazzy, and since I'm a guy, it would be the only thing I could get away with wearing. Aha. Although, maybe her crescent moon necklace would fit too. :D

badanimals87 02-16-2010 02:36 PM

Her Rhiannon cloak from the RAL Tour. I think it's the same one she's wearing on the Wild Heart album cover.

bellagypsy79 02-16-2010 03:19 PM

This is a hard one. The Bella Donna dress on the album cover and that cute little half top she wore in 1975 with her jeans. That's cute.

But I doubt she still has this outfit, but I would love to have it!

Every time I see that dress (robe?) I think about how great it would be if they made one for a Barbie doll like that. (I collect Barbies) This doll dress kind of has the start of that idea.

The Barbie dress in the picture you attached looks a lot like the OSOTM dress ... maybe it's just the flower in the hair!

From the Enchanted Mirror site, I think.

Miranda, if you have a decent fabric shop near you and any kind of sewing ability at all, shawls are really easy to make, I've made plenty for myself and other people. The Edge shawl in particular is really simple, since the white satin and fringe are so easy to come by. Or maybe you just want the original articles :p

goldustsongbird 02-16-2010 09:15 PM

This dress (she can keep the hat; I'd look like a mushroom):

I think the white cape is cool. But in the red rocks video - I hate when she would crouch down with that cape on during EOS. When she's in that position, it looked like she was wearing a giant diaper.

gypsy4life 02-16-2010 10:28 PM

[SIZE="4"]Cover of Rumours...love that little dress!!! Of course it's probably like a size 2 or something..lol

My second choice, any of her boots...I'm not picky!

I thought so too, after I posted it!

The Buckingham Nicks blouse that she spent all of her money on.

GypsyBlueEyes 02-17-2010 01:05 AM

The tophat...definitely!

There is a lot of stuff she wore in the early days that I would love to have but, just to consider something a bit more recent, I have to say I really love everything about this and would love to have the entire outfit

Lexi 02-17-2010 04:44 AM

This hat thing she's wearing. Either that or just one of her dresses.

http://rockalittle.com/edge17.jpg


Or if I can be greedy, one of the moon necklaces.

Does anyone know if there are other shots out there from this particular photo shoot? I've always thought that it doesn't really look like Stevie (although it's a gorgeous pic) & I'm curious to see more. Don't recall seeing others.

I asked something like this a long time ago, and I don't remember anyone posting any photos similar to this. Wish I knew...:shrug: unless this picture was from the same session...

ragrsrocalot 02-17-2010 06:40 PM

I would'nt want anything from Stevie, but I have always admired her beautiful gold braclet seen in many photos. Does anyone know the cut or style of this piece? I'd love to have this, it's very different, and has caught my eye since the 80's that I can remember.

I've always loved that long cardigan sweater Stevie wears in one of the Rumours-era (or it might be White Album?) photo shoots. It's not the most Stevie-esque of pieces, but I really like it!

Yes, the jawline almost looks too long and narrow to be Stevie, but I guess it's just the camera angle and shading.

I somehow knew you'd chime-in on this one!

Sleepless-Child 02-18-2010 02:44 PM

Does the tambourine count?
Well, THE TOP HAT, or just one of her shawls, because it's so Stevie-esque. Or platform boots. I'd take whatever she'd give me, anyway.

petep9000 02-18-2010 03:59 PM

her huge afro wig!
