Description
"Dream Dresses" is a short story collection exploring how dreams and clothing intertwine in the lives of women. From childhood to old age, women's aspirations are closely connected to particular types of dresses: the school uniform, the prom dress, the wedding dress, the evening gown, the holiday outfit...or even the dress you'd like to wear for your own funeral.
Eleven stories recount the experiences of how a particular dress becomes part of a larger hope or dream about life. Sometimes the dresses seem to fulfill these hopes, but the dream can also turn into a nightmare or be merely ridiculous.....
