Judy Garland as Dorothy's gingham pinafore dress wouldn't be complete without a white petticoat slip.

This garment under the dress is custom-made from cotton muslin, and is visible throughout the movie.

This beautiful dress as worn by Judy Garland as Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, is the most accurate reproduction you will ever see, paying careful attention to detail.

Made exactly in Judy Garland's measurements, her dress also has important features such as a hidden right pocket, and closing at the back with vintage "hook and eyes", as well as vintage buttons on the belt.

This is the kind of 1930's style dress that you need help to wear it because you can't close the back of the white blouse and dress on your own.

The blouse is very sheer and delicate like the originals, so we always handle it with care. It's so fine that you can see through it to the corset that MGM Studios made Judy Garland wear to keep her breasts down flat.

They say pretty girls look good in anything, and wowee Judy Garland is certainly one. She was born to wear this stunning gown.

We have a beautiful corset that fits Judy Garland as Dorothy perfectly. This garment will be included as part of her dress.

MGM Studios made Judy Garland wear a corset for her role as Dorothy which covers her from the bust to hip, intended to give her the perfect childlike figure.

Another look at a copy of the most beautiful and iconic dress that Judy Garland wore in her lead role as Dorothy.

There isn't a day that goes by that I don't look at this dress, just love Judy Garland and love anything associated with her. This isn't the final dress because top costume maker in MaryAnne will do a bit of tweaking to make the dress look even better.

I apologize for the lack of updates on this thread, I haven't abandoned it and I'm sure people have been waiting patiently to see the new Dorothy dress.

It will still be made, but in mid 2016 because the costume maker has been very busy with her new home.

The good news is that she is still committed to getting the job done, I will provide further updates if there's any changes to the middle of the year schedule.

We now own two beautiful gingham pinafore dress and blouse. The first dress is on a mannequin, and our new dress is on a white clothes hanger which is why it looks a bit awkward.

MaryAnne did a wonderful job with both dresses, we appreciate everything she's done but since it took her a while to make the second dress she forgot to fix something that we requested so unfortunately we are back to square one.

The petticoat slip and blouse is right but the actual gingham dress is a bit off and we need to fix some minor issues with it. We are perfectionists when it comes to the costume worn by Judy Garland as Dorothy and that reflects on the way we craft our ruby slippers.

We have decided to make the appropriate changes to the dress on the white clothes hanger ourselves, we feel this is the only way we will be happy. We have the base dress and a sewing machine and we need to order the fabric. We just have to find time to work on the dress and that's the problem because we are behind schedule with our ruby slippers, so the dress will need to be put aside.
