Modeling Forgotten Dresses

May 14, 2020 By: Summer Samba33 Comments

Summer's human finds some forgotten dresses and Summer models them.

A couple of days ago, my human shared an older blog post of mine on Facebook. It included a couple of dresses I hadn’t seen in… years. It turns out that she had put one of them aside along with another pair of dresses from a different blog post because they were filthy! She spilled something on one of them, I have no idea what, and the others were, well, grimy. They actually had washing instructions. The tag said to hand wash them.

So she did what she always does with hand washing. She threw them in a laundry bag and tossed them in the washing machine under the “hand wash” setting. You might think she is not very good with laundry. And you might be right.

Fortunately my human’s lazy approach to laundry didn’t ruin them.

But it also didn’t get the stain out of this dress. So it had to go into the trash.

Fortunately my human found the other dress from the original 2015 blog post at the bottom of a plastic container. So I still have three dresses to model.

I was quite happy to get this dress on. I think I was a teenager (in cat years) when I last wore it! And it still fits!

Even though it’s from the mid-2010s, I think it’s still in style. At least for kitties.

This is a cute dress too, from the same vintage. My human is a sucker for dresses with skulls on them. Not for her to wear. Just me.

She says I’m the only kitty that can look sweet in a skull dress.

Lastly, there was this, um, pinafore or whatever it is.

This one’s about on par with the ugly dress I posed in recently. I think it can get lost again.

So how did you like these old/new/found dresses? Let me know in the comments!

    Summer – While the skulls are ok – I prefer the polka dots & stripes 🙂 you look adorable. And I’d you mom has not thrown the dress with the stain away – she might try soaking it in Oxyclean – it may get the stain out

    So sorry the stain did not come out of your pretty little dress. When mom has too much “stuff” she has a garage sale. We actually have an annual one for the Kitten House Rescue. Maybe you could have one too. Mom says she like to turn over the inventory of purses she collects, MOL. OUt the new purses, in with the new, MOL.

    My momma had to wear a mask to get her hair dyed. So she chose sugar skull fabric. MOL.

    Last dress sucks, you’ll right. Others are Beautiful and Cool. Loved your teenage dress, very tasteful and colorful. Totally you.

    Well, we don’t love the pinafore. Too bad about the pretty dress with the stain. Did your human try Oxyclean? That just calls for a soak in the sink (or whatever). Easy! (And if you haven’t guessed, our mom does that same thing with the bag in the washer. She says hand washing is for the birds.)

    Summer, you make everything look good. But I agree, the last dress needs to get lost.

    The first two are so pretty! Even though you don’t like the third one very well, it’s still cute. P.s. Our mom noticed you’re doing Youtube stories! Way to go!

    Everything looks good on you, Summer, but we tend to agree about that last one. Too bad about the one with the non-removable stains as it was pretty.

    I love the dress with the black and white stripes and polkadots! Very pretty!

    Too bad the stain was set in that nice pink dress.

    (Petcretary has a whole lot of zippered bags for ‘hand washing’ in the washing machine. Hah! Not such a bad idea, really!)

    Lovely frocks. Really pretty colors. Too bad
    that pretty pink can’t be saved. Would it be
    possible to move the bow down in the approxi-
    mate area of the stain? It might cover enough
    to make the stain unnoticed. Might be in an
    odd area too though huh? Nice modeling job.
