Piggy is obviously dressed for contract negotiations! She is wearing a short, white strapless dress with an unusual hemline. Let me try to describe it adequately. The skirt-part itself ends with an inverted u-shaped hemline, with the middle front hemline several inches shorter than the back hemline. If there was not a ruffle, Piggy walking down the street in this would require a riot squad! The ruffle is about six-to-eight inches long in the front, not gathered where it attaches to the skirt but full at the bottom. (I know from sewing that the way you make this ruffle is to cut a spiral-shaped piece of fabrice and attach one edge, leaving all the fullness of the curve to fall in loose ruffles at the hem-end of the garment. It is very hard to describe.) Because of the way this is cut, it would sway and move as Piggy walked--a very sexy style. The final length of the dress, even with the ruffle, is several inches above her plump little knees, which
are nice and plump. If she is wearing pantyhose, they are very sheer. Very, very sheer. We do not know what her shoes look like, but I think it is sage to say they would be fabulous!
Over the dress, she is wearing a clingy lace jacket that is open down to three or four inches below her cleavage, so it is not a cover-up by any means! It is free of a zipper, buttons, or other closures, so it is obviously designed to be open. Rather than a cover-up, it is more of an...asset enhancer, framing her charms. The dress is strapless, with a sweetheart neckline (which means that the necklines dips down like the top of a heart, showing off her bustline) but it isn't really that lowcut. The sleeves are form-fitting and come down almost to her knuckles (a feminine style I find particularly appealing). Daringly, her hands are bare, without her usual gloves. While the dress is undeniably sexy and well-fitted to her form, it is a very sophisticated look. She does not look
scantily clad, but her form is very well presented. She could walk into Four Seasons in this, a wedding, or even rock the red carpet showing a little more leg than expected.
Piggy is standing looking directly at the viewer, and her VERY platinum-blond hair frames her face and falls just a little past her shoulders. This is very like her hair in Paris in The Muppets. Her bangs fall coquettishly long, framing her fabulous electric-blue eyes, which look enormous. Her lashes--which we all know would
never be fake, are very, very dark and full, a striking contract to her platinum hair and peaches-and-cream complexion. Instead of her usual single strange of pearls, she has a three-strand choker work at the same place. Her expression says, "Adore me! And give me a bigger wardrobe budget!"
Thoreau would be so proud!
Lady Piggy--if you can't tell, I thought it was marvelous! (If there is anyone else who wants to describe these for the non-viewing audience, please don't let me, um,
hog the pleasure. I will gladly stand down and back away from the wings....)
