Bess
THE GERSHWIN'S PORGY AND BESS (2012 Revival)
2012
It’s a warm Summertime evening on Catfish Row as Bess first stumbles onto the stage in the 2012 revival of The Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess. Portrayed by Broadway superstar and four-time Tony Award-winner Audra McDonald, Bess grows to melt the heart of her star-crossed lover, Porgy. Our Bess bear will melt your heart as well in this attractive attire. Her red cotton eyelet lace dress is a lovingly rendered recreation of a costume designed by Project Runway finalist Emilio Sosa. The busty frock is adorned with black bead buttons and a thin, black leather belt, completed with a circular belt buckle. Her legs are adorned with black nylon stockings and simple black shoes. Everything on this bear is the product of meticulous research, down to the dress strap that falls off her left shoulder. Her look is completed by a pin-curled wig, luscious red lipstick and a faint scar on her left cheek. In Porgy and Bess, Jake says, “a woman may be a sometime thing.” However, our Bess bear will brighten your home forever.
