Doll House of Fashions at Angel’s Attic

That first birthday party is always special. Angel’s Attic is 1 year old and celebrates its birthday today with a luncheon in the Attic garden, 516 Colorado Ave., Santa Monica. Guests will have aperitifs and browse through the doll house, miniature collections, gift gallery and plant boutique before lunch and a fashion show of Janis and John Kelley’s collection for the very young. Some well-known grandchildren will model.

Jackie Mahan and Eleanor LaVove, just returned from a doll house and miniatures tour of England, Wales and Ireland, have asked Brooke Tucker to be guest of honor.

Angels Attic is a nonprofit project for the benefit of the Brentwood Center for Educational Therapy--Autistic Children and Young Adults.

The polonaise dates to 1574 when Henry of Anjou was elected to the Polish throne and the procession of wives of nobility became the stately dance as it’s known today. Of course, it was also a favorite form of musical composition used by Frederic Chopin too.

Polonaise balls have become increasingly popular social events with Polish communities in New York, Miami, San Francisco and Detroit.
