Ada the Movie Star!

After two hours of persuasion, we convinced Ada she must pay her carers, and therefore make a trip to the bank. So we dressed her like a movie star, to make her feel better. It was fun! Like playing dolls, only this one is life sized and can speak Polish. They should make ‘granny’ dolls for Barbie. You can dress them in their amazing vintage wardrobes, they have collected over their life-time, back when clothes were made to last.

We chose black tights, little red shoes, a black and white check jacket - that I would totally wear! We fixed a broach to it, gave her a silk scarf and a huge fur coat – that some poor animal gave their life for. To top the outfit off: a cream and black beret, shocking red lipstick, and a huge set of circular round sunglasses. It was soo cool! But you have to admit, she looked a little ridiculous. Especially being wheeled around the streets. She certainly turned heads.

It was the first time she’s left the apartment in over a month.
