Thread: When Raqs Beaver Just Isn't an Option....

Where can I buy one of those nude G-strings with clear plastic side straps?

I know I've seen these before....it's just that this was back in the day when I never would have entertained the notion of wearing "naked" dresses or costumes with enormous cutouts in strategic locations. I am drawing a serious blank!

Somebody please point me in the right direction so I don't have to pull any Lindsay Lohan maneuvers .p::

Speaking as someone who saw raqs beaver not once, but TWICE today...thank you for your attention to this matter!!!

Did you check Fredericks of Hollywood online? Sometimes they have stuff like that. I don't think I have ever seen it at Victoria's Secret. Hmmm. Stripper store?

Lycra Thong, Clear Straps Thong, Sexy Thong, Thong Panty, Sexy Lingerie

does not appear to come in nude.

maybe this is one of those DIY things? hehe

That is so horrifying! Your poor retinas must be screaming after taking in a Raqs Beaver Double Feature. Seriously. Raqs Beaver is a totally preventable atrocity. How do people let it happen????? In the light of all the great boy shorts and g-strings out there, there is SO not a single excuse to flash your cooch.....although, I suppose that's the desired effect for some folks? *scratches head* Didn't their teachers give them the talk about matching their underpinnings to their skirt?

Back to the topic at hand. Unfortunately, Jasmine, neither VS nor Fredricks carry what I need. This has actually been surprisingly tricky to find! Perhaps, a trip to the stripper store is in order. Yaaaaaaaahooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!

Gurl...I am still in shock. I kept thinking, "No, that's not--oh, well, yes, that's her naked ladyness...oh, and there it is again."

I was just "googling" to find out where you can get a pair of those panties and look what I found:

No panties, just a few good ideas.

You could get the white color and dye it with tea bags. I've done this before with a white silk slip. Make the tea really dark and then soak the thong in the tea (take the tea bags out). Don't know if it will work with lycra.

One trick I use for those costumes (or costumes that I just don't want to have to worry about what panties I'm wearing) is sewing nude-colored swimsuit fabric under the mesh. I buy it at the local fabric store (usually comes in a very dark nude tone) and cut and sew into place. Then it doesn't matter what panties you wear! (and you CAN wear some) ..g.:

Very cool. Those are some great ideas!

Maybe a nude g-string with a superfine 1/8" or so nude side strap would be the next best option if I can't find the clear. I'm thinking people in the audience would really have to focus in on it to notice it....which would be pretty tricky with me moving around, usually in dim lighting.

This is gonna make me crazy, though. I saw tons of them years ago, but now when I need one (preferably in 2 weeks!) they're nowhere to be found ,m::

*slaps forehead and giggles hysterically*.....so I'm more of a newbie than I thought....because I am still blushing after figuring out just what a "raqs beaver" is....and it's been 20 minutes....

Me too!

something like this would work very well for you i think
Trashy.com - Lingerie - panties - hosiery - swimsuit models - sexy lingerie - Product

select nude color of course
they are decent quality, cheap and if you call in your order, they can express ship to you.

imo, these work under just about every costume

Someone else posted a link to an online lingerie site for a g-string like you described. I suggest checking out Wet Seal or Rave (or another equally club-wear based store). I have had the best luck with g-strings/thongs from Wet Seal. They are super cheap (like $2) and they generally have what you described: really thin side straps.

As an aside I was recently 'treated' to my first experience of this. It came from somone who was a teacher and she certainly seemed quite delighted by the whole thing. She gave us a grand finale by lying out on the floor and frantically vibrating her pelvis - At a 'family friendly' halfa in a Catholic Social club. .p::

Meanwhile, I, at my first ever solo had spent a good 15 minutes pining down my thoroughly road-tested cossie with help from others and donning my carefully chosen matching boy shorts - must go and polish my halo!

Wonder if you can get these nude G-stings in the UK -anyone know?

I once made myself a pair by using the extra clear plastic straps that often come with bras and cutting my bikini underwear and sewing the clear straps on both sides. Was a bother but it worked.

Speaking of Raqs Beaver...check out this dress from the bellydance store. Even the manniquin is embarrased!

OMG! .w.:

I once bought a used dress and when it came it had undies inside! The previous wearer had sewn nude panties into it...She cut off the sides and sewed the top of the panty where she could right into the beading. I took them out but thought it would be a great idea for a revealing dress.

WOW. Ummm....is it just me, or does it totally look as though the beaded motif swirls and dips strategically to reveal the area my college roommate refered to as the "coonever?"

Definitely designed for the flasher with glittery taste.

It is a large costume on a small mannequin, maybe it hangs differently on a fuller figure *hopes*

Yes!
I´ve done this on dresses,but instead of sewing them there,
I attached the panties with snap buttons so they can be washed...
and made back up panties.
