Hey! I'm thinking of making a rockabilly girl eventually and I was wondering if anyone else had done something like this too? If so, I'd love to see it!
Could somebody post some pics of authentic rockabilly style? is it like punk+vintage? That's what google popped up, so I'm curious.
I'm not sure I'm the best judge of authentic (My best friend is definitely a rockabilly girl, I'm just a big fan of both the music/scene, but not a participant, hehe) but a website that I know has some good examples of the fashion is www.pinupgirlclothing.com, as well as http://rockabillygirlsgonewild.com, which despite the name is 100% work safe, I checked pretty carefully to make sure. Basically the idea of modern rockabilly is a take off of the 1950s rock and roll style, with a heavy addition of punk, so you're completely right. I think a doll done in this style would be absolutely gorgeous, and my aforementioned best friend is already helping me out with ideas for outfits and makeup/hair, I just would really love to see any that have been done.
It's not quite "true" Rockabilly, but at least the dress is. I guess it's some sort of Rockabilly/Cyberpunk mashup, heh. The dress was made by Batchix. ^_^
Letty gets described as rockabilly quite a bit, but I think that more has to do with the style of clothing I make and put on her than her....
Someone just linked this old thread and I thought I'd bump it up! My rockabilly girl, Maggie: And Mariella wears rockabilly/pin up things from time to time:
One of my friends has a Rockabilly girl - she's not particularly active on DoA, so I'll share a few shots. As far as I remember, and I'm not a expert - it's a kind of 50s rock n roll with more country colours and a lean towards checks. And tattoos. Lots of tattoos.
