A Dress A Day

A dress.
Mostly every day.

dreaming of dresses

What does it mean to dream of a dress? Well, thanks to Zolar's Encyclopedia and Dictionary of Dreams, you can find out. (Have I mentioned lately how much I adore Google Print?)

receiving a dress: you will be helped by an unknown man
changing a dress: you will suffer because of your own foolishness
closet full of dresses: a constant love of social pleasures
designing a dress: you will receive a proposition and turn it down (I dream this ALL THE TIME, yet I cannot think of the last proposition I received)
buying a new dress: health and happiness
nice dress: efforts will succeed
tight dress: you are being unrelenting your control of others
purple dress: happy marriage and death of a friend (huh?)
a partially sewn dress: you will be disregarded by friends
a dress in a shop window: your ambition is inspired, follow it
taking off a dress: trust only your own counsel
sewing up a torn dress: you are neglecting your own children
washing a dress: be more financially frugal
wearing a daring evening gown : your selfish, presumptive personality shines (I dream this fairly often as well. At least I'm a SHINY jerk.)
someone stepping on the train of your dress: you will have a new love affair

    Well, I've googled unsuccessfully, so perhaps you can help: What does it mean when you dream of fabric? Specifically, shopping for fabric? I have fabric-shopping dreams fairly often, and while they can be frustrating while I dream (the hunt! the hunt!), sometimes they're more frustrating when I wake without the unusual fabrics I found while sleeping. Like the beaded silk and lace I found for a wedding dress, which was, I think, $514.00 per yard, and I needed six yards - but the bodice was already part of yardage, so that helped.

    So ... what do you think it means?

    dunno. But I could use a few dressy dreams in my life. I just dream about losing my teeth.

    I could use a few dress dreams too -- I'm still showing up late for exams in my dreamlife!

    Zolar has more than a page on the significance of fabric dreams? Who knew?
