What a popular topic!
I used to watch "Little House on the Prairie" first because I wanted to wear those fantastic long calico dresses and second because I had a crush on Melissa Gilbert like you wouldn't believe.
One of these days I'm going to make a Princess Leia senatorial gown (from the real Star Wars, not those cheap knockoff sequels).
I *did* make a Dorothy dress for Halloween one year - the one and only time I went out in a dress. It was great. I didn't shave for several weeks so I had a thick stubble, my girlfriend's cheap costume wig, and an easter basket to carry around a stuffed dog in... and I won first prize for the costume.
I guess I'd better stop before I get carried away. Pretty much every movie I see, I'm looking at the dresses thinking how I'd like to wear them.
