Pretty in Pink

Poor Eliza found herself all dolled up but nowhere to go, but that was in January. Months later it seems that one of the newest addition to Perth’s public art collection is still waiting for a change (doesn’t anybody care she has been in the same outfit for months?). There are several statues around the world that people just love to dress up. The most famous of them all is Manneken Pis in Brussels, who has over a 100 different costumes and it seems our little Eliza statue is heading towards the same fate (though she has only one so far). It isn’t a bad life, Il Porcellino (the little pig) outside the Sydney Hospital doesn’t seem to mind at all. That little piggy can boast quite a few outfits . But I do think if this is going to be a trend for Eliza, a more thoughtful approach would be appreciated. That green tank across her face just isn’t working for me.

News Flash : Stop the presses Eliza has been seen in new attire. Yes, our water mannequin has been spotted dressed in the Scotch College regalia. You go girl.
