Somewhere among the cars, costumes, guitars.....

....there should be some 55-gallon drums of white buttons. All sizes.
I'd love to see PP offer buttons for sale.
Sew them on your pants, your shirt, your purse.
The secret fan signal.

What else are you curious about?

God I loved the SOTT/Lovesexy era! He looked so good in tailored fit suits like this one. Wish he had worn them more. sad Never a fan of the bigger suits on him. They seemed to drown him out a bit.

Awhile back, I dreamed that they had a rummage sale at Paisley Park - and I bought a whole bunch of fabric. I even slugged a woman who tried to get some of my fabric away from me. mad

None of the fabric they were selling was black. confuse lol

I'm wondering how many mustard bottles were in his fridge, truly. I heard he liked lots of different kinds.

On a more serious note, I'd just like to see his boudoir.

I was so looking forward to reading his autobiography. I would love to read those 50 pages that he wrote before he died.

That article about Prince's fridge was an April Fool's joke.

It was cute and almost believable.

LOL! Cute idea actually. nod

But all I really want is one of Prince's hats. If traces of DNA is a concern for the originals-- which I most definitely understand why that could be the case-- EXACT replicas sold exclusively through PP in really cool hat boxes would totally work for me. IJS! wink

I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.

His books, i would love to see some pictures of his book shelves.
I saw a video of him sightseeing in France, looking around Versailles. I wonder if he did private tours of other cities with his camera in hand like a tourist.

I'm pretty sure Nik West has that hat. It was shown in her instagram post, then later there was a caption, something to the tune of "look what Prince left for me...", I'm sure he owned more than one of those, though lol

Well, we know he had a 27 inch waist for a period of his marriage to Mayte (see the Oprah show) and he definitely had periods of being thinner than during that interview.

P was miniscule, no getting away from it - small but perfectly formed, lol!

Well at least he didn't have a smaller waist than I did in my hay day, (although he was rather close. eek lol

If you look right about the crotch it is a 1987 model

Prince being a 5'4 man, if he had a bigger waste he would look a lil plump

22-1/2" waist according to the archivist measuring his clothing.
She said that as she held up the cloud suit, which looked like a child's suit.

I remember reading an article in which his chief costumer said she put the buttons down the sides of his trousers to make him look taller. She employed a number of "tricks" to make him appear larger than he was. Of course, I would have liked to measure his inseam, but we can save that for another thread ...

I'm not altogether surprised...The 27" waist was when he was at one of his more bigger (healthier?) stages. There have been many times when Prince was thin, thin, thin!

He would've been so easy to scoop up and carry away...We should've arranged a Prince-napping when we had the chance!

Dammit.

To be honest, I really envision that they display things like, his closet!! How the shoes are displayed, his jewellery and accessories, normal things like that (perhaps NOT UP in the actual closet, but maybe a replica display, if the Toronto closet was even a hint at the what his closet at PP would look like in size...I can only imagine, and it would be neat to see how it was all set up smile

Same with the guitars guitar

But what I really really REALLY would love that a lovely collection/book of photos that PRINCE took with the various cameras we've seen over the years, the world through HIS eyes, along with some new poetry/lyrics...That is what I would really love to see nod They must be there somewhere since we know he kept everything smile

Plus, whatever is on the 500 videos that were hidden foodnow bringiton beg

Yes, I was thinking his waist had to be smaller than 27in by the look of the waist on the manikin. I used to have a 22in waist myself and people were always amazed at how tiny my waist was. It looked a lot like the manakin's size. He had some broad shoulders though. lol He was such a unique individual in every way... touched fallinluv
