    SOLD Super Elegant Black/Silver/Green Hanan $299

    Costume Size: Regular
    Seller's Country: USA
    FINALLY SOLD!

    $299 plus shipping. Prefer to ship within US. Prefer paypal.






    COSTUME DESCRIPTION
    This is a Hanan costume that I redesigned into a beautiful bra/skirt. This costume started out as a dress that just wasn't cut quite right for anyone. It is elegant, classic, clean lines without being too minimalist, top quality beadwork and fabric.

    Costume includes bra, skirt, arm band, head band, neckband (cut from the dress bodice), long mesh sleeve (cut from dress, would need elastic at the top to use), chiffon veil with beaded edge, bag of leftover beaded scraps and loose beads). Black body stocking not included.

    fabric/beadwork details:
    heavy black lycra with silver iridescent, green, and peacock iridescent glass beads and sequins. The beadwork is among the highest quality I have seen and is very heavy. (no plastic beads or painted beads). Few stones on the bra.

    construction details:
    The dress originally had a bra decorated only on the one exposed cup. I took beaded sections from the bodice and applied them to the undecorated side. I added a few fringes to the center of the bra, and a scattering around the hips. The beadwork affected by the redesign was all stablized and well knotted.

    Measurements:
    bra band 34.5 max, currently set around 29"
    bra cups 8" diagonal, 6" vertical
    skirt high hip 27" unstretched to 38" or possibly more stretched
    skirt max booty 32" unstretch to 40"+ stretched
    skirt length when laid out on table: 40.5" in the front, 42" in the back. Part of this length gets taken up when it stretches over your hips.

    Re: Black Hanan for a TALL dancer!

    Added some new body pics with a different model. For height reference, I'm the one standing on the chair, I'm 5'4", and the skirt is a good 5" or so too long. The other model is around 5'10" and the skirt is just a titch too long for her.

    The dancer cannot be separated from the dance, she also cannot be separated from the history of dancing, from the line of dancers and teachers leading to her.

    I'm very impressed with your conversion from the dress to the skirt & bra! Great job!

    I love Hanan, love black with silver and green, and that's why I already have 2 costumes from Hanan in this same color scheme. Oh nos. :-( But bump for prettiness!

    Good lord, Sedonia, that is a hot costume! Too bad I can't afford to shop right now because I can't seem to unload my own !#$% pretty costume. But here's a bump for ya...I can't BELIEVE no one has bought this yet.

    Wow!!! This is a gorgeous costume, you did a fantastic work at converting it! And the offer you are making is hard to resist.

    The cups may be a bit big, but padding should do the job (hehe) and the skirt is a bit long for me (I'd probably need it to be 38''), but... It seems it would be manageable. I'm interested! Here is my email : dominiquesenecal@gmail.com

    Let me know if the costume is still for sale! I know the post is from a few months ago, so maybe this beauty found a home by now. Thank you! :)
