Hey guys,

You may have already seen this, (I'm usually the last to catch on to anything), but I noticed that Margie Kent posted another Instagram photo yesterday that appears to be a partially finished version of one of these designs. It seems to be the long dress featured in the drawing on the upper right. The thicker stretchy material shown here is used as a fitted long sheath dress and it has drapes of the chiffon (with a textured material that appears to be incorporated somehow too) from the side of each hip. I apologize that I didn't try to include the picture for you, but I am fairly useless in the tech-savvy sense and would probably mess it up. I'm sure someone out there can help out with including a picture if you care to see it. I don't know if this particular piece is really for Stevie or not, but the red is beautiful.

You're talking about this. I think the label on the neck says "Christine" (click to enlarge):

Yes, thank you for posting the picture. Hmm, labeled with someone else's name... Maybe the only design from the previous picture that was meant for Stevie was the typical fluffy top with the long sleeves and the other drawings just happened to be on the table as well? Who knows...

Yes but I find most interesting the fact that it is labeled "Christine" ...

I think it's very interesting that it's labelled "Christine," but I find it really hard to picture Christine in that dress. I hope I'm wrong, but it just doesn't strike me as her. Unless it's for a Grammy event or party, or the Grammy's themselves.

True but the dress isn't finished yet and if the completed version leaves less naked skin it may be possible.

The first thing I thought of when I saw that was, maybe Stevie's going to wear that red Stevie uniform to the Grammy's, and then change into that showstopper for Jimmy's wedding, as you do

In all seriousness, I've never seen Stevie or Christine in a strapless anything and I highly doubt at this age they would start...

Well, there was the 1987 VMAS...



I would have loved to see Stevie or Chris in something strapless... Sadly, Stevie seems too self-conscious these days, and even though the dress doesn't look like Christine's style at all, it's more believable as hers than as Stevie's.

But I was so hoping to see Stevie in something new!

The label was definitely meant for Christine McVie as there is another pic on Margie's Instagram with the same mannequin and a jacket with the quote reading, "nothing but the best for Christine McVie. But they could have just left an old label on there...

Yes I agree. Christine wouldn't wear that on stage during a concert because she needs to be able to move around.

I guess she might wear it to some kind of presentation, but it really doesn't look like her style or color.

That flowy bottom looks like something she would outright laugh at. Now, she's worn long skirts before, but they were more boho.

Stevie in her days wore strapless tops and dresses from time to time just think about the one from the official Tusk video or like Lilyfee says the Tango velvet dress (she used it also on stage during the tour). I just think that the dress with the right jacket on would be much more "Christine".

Ah, yes you all are correct! I didn't even think of those!

Now that I'm thinking here though, I do find it slightly interesting why both the Stevie outfit and the "Christine" dress are both red, and seemingly from the same fabrics. I worked for a designer fresh out of uni in France and I can say that, the odds of making two dresses for two different people at the same time who wanted the same/similar fabrics is extremely slim, unless they were purposely coordinated... The instagram picture says "looks for our gypsy" implying that there are more than one, and stylistically speaking, she obviously included that other dress design in the picture for some reason.

That being said, that dress is not Stevie's size, and (even though I am wrong sometimes ) I can't picture Christine wearing something that style.. UNLESS

Perhaps this is for an album cover... Purposely coordinated outfits?

I don't think this red dress in the making has anything to do with the Stevie sketches. I also don't think it has anything to do with Christine McVie. I think the name just happens to be on the dress form she's using. It's not the right shade of red for Stevie, and it's definitely not the right style for either her or Chris. Perhaps Mick will be wearing it. He's not a stranger to drag, after all...
