KATANA VOLUME ZERO

This elegant brown gown with gold embroidery was first seen in the 1991 film 𝑹𝒐𝒃𝒊𝒏 𝑯𝒐𝒐𝒅, starring Uma Thurman as Maid Marian.   The next year, the costume appeared on Ione Skye as Eleanor Grey in an episode of the television series 𝑪𝒐𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒕𝒐𝒏 𝑪𝒓𝒐𝒔𝒔 titled 𝑩𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒅 𝑷𝒂𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔.   The gown was auctioned off by @bonhams1793, which described the piece as follows:   𝑨 𝑴𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒆𝒗𝒂𝒍 𝒔𝒕𝒚𝒍𝒆 𝒅𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒔, 𝒐𝒇 𝒎𝒂𝒖𝒗𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒍𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒇𝒂𝒃𝒓𝒊𝒄, 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒆𝒎𝒃𝒓𝒐𝒊𝒅𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒇 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒃𝒆𝒓𝒓𝒚 𝒎𝒐𝒕𝒊𝒇 𝒕𝒐 𝒄𝒐𝒍𝒍𝒂𝒓 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒔𝒍𝒆𝒆𝒗𝒆 𝒆𝒅𝒈𝒆𝒔, 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒄𝒐𝒓𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒑𝒐𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒅𝒆𝒕𝒂𝒊𝒍 𝒕𝒐 𝒕𝒐𝒑 𝒐𝒇 𝒔𝒍𝒆𝒆𝒗𝒆, 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒈𝒐𝒍𝒅 𝒏𝒆𝒕 𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒌𝒊𝒓𝒕, 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒃𝒓𝒂𝒔𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒋𝒆𝒘𝒆𝒍 𝒆𝒇𝒇𝒆𝒄𝒕 𝒄𝒍𝒂𝒔𝒑𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒔𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒔, 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒍𝒆𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒔 𝒃𝒆𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒐𝒑𝒆𝒏 𝒔𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒔, 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒈𝒐𝒍𝒅 𝒃𝒓𝒂𝒊𝒅 𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒕, 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒂 𝒎𝒂𝒕𝒄𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒅𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒔, 𝒕𝒐𝒈𝒆𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒂 𝒇𝒖𝒍𝒍 𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒈𝒕𝒉 𝑴𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒆𝒗𝒂𝒍 𝒔𝒕𝒚𝒍𝒆 𝒅𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝒄𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒎 𝒄𝒐𝒍𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒔𝒊𝒍𝒌 𝒅𝒆𝒄𝒐𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒑𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒇𝒍𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓𝒔, 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒆𝒅 𝒃𝒂𝒄𝒌, 𝒍𝒂𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒅 𝒊𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒅𝒆 “𝑨𝒏𝒈𝒆𝒍𝒔 & 𝑩𝒆𝒓𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒔”.   Learn more at Bit.ly/AncMed006

Today is National wiggle your toes day, which makes me think of the many times I was going through hell and would quote The Bride in this amazing scene. After wiggling my toes I would get up to face work harassment, stalkers, having no money, police, and so much more! "Now, let's get these other piggies wiggling!"
