Have y'all seen these? This is too cool. I was at a craft fair today. This is a Bubble Shirt. It looks like doll clothes. It is six inches across and ten inches long. I'm a size 10 and it fits me. It stretches and does not wrinkle. Once it is washed, it goes back to it's little size again. It's advertised as 'great for traveling'. I can see where that would be right. Doesn't take up much space and you don't have iron it.

I love to go to the craft shows and see what's new and what all they can come up with next.

I have had one and it is very comfortable.

They have been around here for a while. I haven't tried one because I was afraid they would cling to me too much. Are they tight fitting? I'll be traveling out of the country next year and could use small clothes.

Mine does not fit tight. The fabric is light. It feels very comfortable today. Someone mentioned that it is hot. Today, it is COLD in Texas so I guess it's not a good day to test it.

Kathy, you should have run on down to Austin. It was pretty nice despite our "cold front".

I've had one of those for a number of years now but it is tank top style. I love it for the comfort in the summer...I didn't find it hot at all and I wore it in august when the temps here with humidity was about 100 degrees.

I would love to have some of these for traveling :D:D:D

my daughter had one of them...she didn't like it. I got rid of it already. It looked so small and stretched very easily out to the right size. It was kinda funny.

I love mine. Fits great under my velour warm ups and I can take off the jacket and be bubbly. Love mine.

Where have I been living the last 17 years, under a rock? Yesterday is the first time that I've seen them. I go to the craft shows every year. There are two really BIG shows at different high schools in the area. I don't know how I missed them.

They seem to come and go at different times of the year. I have seen them at Nordstroms and Wal mart. It maybe that some are starting to make their own and sell them. I did like mine when I had it. :)
