skippercollector.bsky.social @skippercollector.bsky.social · 08/09/2026I know this sounds ironic& pathetic, but I would 've liked to wear one of the girls' outfits. I was 12 in '73 & went to Catholic school & wore a uniform every day, so there was no need for anything dressier. (When I graduated from high school I swore I would never wear the same outfit twice again!) 121
