A few weeks after Dapper Day Spring, popular retro reproduction brand, Pinup Girl Clothing, hosted their bi-annual Pinup Parade in the Park. Pinup Girl Clothing usually does this in Spring and Fall. I usually attended the Fall event. I didn’t go last year because it was on the same weekend as Viva. There was no theme this time around. The turnout was smaller. We also shared the park with Bats Day. Contrary to my partner’s beliefs, Bats Day is not the day to wear your baseball sportsball hometeam gear. The event was also met by rain, but it didn’t stop us from dressing all fancy. Disneyland guests were wondering if it was Dapper Day: The Adventure Continues and were asking why people were dressed from the 1950s. We kindly explained what Pinup Parade in the Park was and they seemed to get it.<\/p>\n

The Disneybound<\/strong><\/p>\n

Disneybounding is highly encouraged, but not required at Pinup Parade. Considering many of Pinup Girl Clothing’s dresses are inspired by Disney, My bound is based on the 1957 Silly Symphony, “The Truth About Mother Goose.” The bound is based on “Mary Mary Quite Contrary…” which is a nursery rhyme based on Mary, Queen of Scots. If you haven’t seen this animated short, it’s very well done. The animation style is very reminiscent of Sleeping Beauty. Even for 1957 Disney, they leave no page unturned in the queen’s unscrupulous life story from her many lovers to her execution. The dress is a blue Ava dress from Pinup Girl Clothing. The hat is from Elsewhere Vintage from downtown Orange. The fur collar is from China. The flower is from Nicoco Creations. The wig is from Goth Lolita Wigs.<\/p>\n

Pinup Parade in the Park<\/strong><\/p>\n

Again the turnout was small, yet humble. I enjoyed talking to everyone I met during the event. Like past events, there were goodie bags being passed out at the main entrance. This time around, we got buttons, a Mary Blair sticker, and a discount code to Pinup Girl Clothing. Trivia was done twice during the event at the Small World esplanade. There were two group rides; one at Small World and King Arthur’s Carousel. I stuck around for both trivia contests and for the group ride at the carousel.<\/p>\n
