Re: Checking interest for 1 BELLA, 1 SIM and 1 AMIRA EL KATTAN...
Hi!
Thank you very much for your interest. It is indeed a lovely costume which I don't like to give up easily but the bra is too small for my D/DDs...
Here are the measurements:
Skirt:
- length varies from 35 to 37 as one side of the front is cut asymmetrical.
- UH: unstretched 30 inches, stretched 42 inches
- LH: unstretched 31 inches, stretched 45 inches
- length of waistband: 32 inches
Bra:
- length 36,5 inches
- horizontal 7 inches, vertical 6 inches, diagonal 7,5 inches
- would fit for an A (with padding) to a C
The costume comes with two wristlets (I sewed them in to make them smaller but that can easily be changed) and a headband.
Down-sides: The costume is used and shows some signs of wear in the lining of the bra. The skirts also has some snags where the rhinestones catched the lycra. Under the arms, there are a lot of snags due to the rhinestones.
I think, it is not noticeable for an audience - especially while dancing but I wanted to mention that for fairness.
Only two tiny rhinestones in the rhinestone-chain where you close the bra in the back are lost. This is definitely not noticeable when worn. All the other stones are there - especially the huge ones.
Overall, I would say: It is in pretty good used condition and still has lots of life for great performances left in it.
All that went into the price: I'm asking only 280 Euros plus shipping and paypal.Don't dream your live, life your dream!

Thank you, SaNoorah!any may I say that you look stunning in the maroon, wow!
I love the green and the eggplant one so much but the bra of the Bella is too small and it is a bit short and the skirt of the Sim is too small and short for me. I always hoped I might fit into it one day, but....
Will take the measurements and some close-ups, soon...

That Sim is amazing! It certainly doesn't look too small for you... I'm scared to ask how much!

@ Superbunny: What you don't see in the pics is that I left the zipper open on the top bit...
and I had to bend my knees a lot to make it look longer on me than it is...
Measurements and price will be in the following link.
@ nayastrance: Will take measurements and pics as soon as possible...

Re: Checking interest for 1 BELLA, 1 SIM and 1 AMIRA EL KATTAN...
Here are the measurements of the eggplant Sim:
skirt:
- length: where the dip is, it's 34 inches, along the sides, it's 39 inches long (It is easily hemmable as there are no beads along the seam.)
- UH: unstretched 30 inches, stretched 36 inches
- LH: unstretched 36 inches, stretched 46 inches
- zipper is on the right side if you wear the skirt with the slit to the front like me in the pics, but you can also wear the slit in the back, if you like
- lace cut-outs on both sides in silver with loads of swarovskis
- rhinestone-chains on skirt as well
- I've replaced all rhinestone-chains and Swarovskis with blingy new ones which was a hell of a work but now, it sparkles like mad - and there are 61! Swarovskis on the skirt, alone!!!
bra:
- length 35 inches
- strap 21 inches
- diagonal 8,35 inches, vertical 7 inches, horizontal 7,5 inches
- deep cups that fit from B (with padding) to D/DD (without padding)
- I've replaced the faded beads on the bra strap with a fantastic high quality rhinestone chain in chrystal AB
- there are 25! big Swarovskis on the bra and 41 smaller ones in the rhinestone chain of the strap - not to mention the small rhinestones in the rhinestone chains on the bra...
gauntlets:
- length: 19,5 inches
- upper arm: unstretched 4,5 inches, stretched 6,5 inches
- wrist: unstretched 3,5 inches, stretched 4,25 inches
- lace cut-out in silver like on the skirt on both gauntlets
Down sides: The previous owner has removed all fringe on the skirt which has left tiny marks where they had been before. The costume has been worn which you can see as several paillettes and beads have lost their silver sheen and look more transparent, now. The lining of the bra is still in excellent condition.
All that went into my consideration concerning the price. I'm asking 380 Euros plus shipping and Paypal.

Re: Checking interest for 1 BELLA, 1 SIM and 1 AMIRA EL KATTAN...
the skirt is great for my hips, and long if out of 35 and I see that you can not shrink without touching the edges .
even so I love this costume

Re: Checking interest for 1 BELLA, 1 SIM and 1 AMIRA EL KATTAN...
And here are the measurements for the emerald green Bella:
skirt:
- length: 36-37 inches (hard to measure because of chiffon inserts)
- UH: unstretched 34 inches, stretched 39 inches
- LH: unstretched 39 inches, stretched 47 inches
- slit is on left side
- has 10 big AB-Swarovskis and 228 ! smaller rhinestones in AB
bra:
- length: 30 inches
-straps: one is 10, the other 9,5 inches long (worn in halterneck style)
- cups: vertical 6 inches, horizontal 7 inches, diagonal 7,5 inches
- would fit for an A with padding to a full C without padding
- has 102 ! rhinestones in AB on it
gauntlets:
- length: 19 inches
- upper arm: unstretched 4,5 inches, stretched 6,5 inches
- wrist: unstretched 3,5 inches, stretched 5 inches
- there are 45 ! rhinestones in AB on them
anklet:
- 6,5 inches long + rupper band
- has 5 rhinestones in AB on it
This costume is a real rhinestone-monster with 380 !!! rhinestones in chrystal AB on it!!!
It was indeed one of the most expensive cossies i've ever bought.
Condition: Shows some signs of wear inside the bra on lining. A few of the paillettes on the sides of the bra (under the arms) have lost a bit of their golden shimmer but this is not noticeable from distance - especially not when you dance.
Considering this, I'm asking 400 Euros plus shipping and Paypal for this stunning emerald green Bella.
BTW: The costume comes with bra, skirt, 2 gauntlets, 1 anklet and the original Bella veil.
And here are some close-ups. The colour is not correct on some of them. It is a true emerald-green. No idea why my camera made it look darker...Last edited by Sahira_Tu_Farach; 11-27-2011 at 10:10 AM.

Re: Checking interest for 1 BELLA, 1 SIM and 1 AMIRA EL KATTAN...
Well - I measured this beauty while lying flat on the floor. If you put it on, it goes up one or two inches because of the stretching around your hips. So, I think this costume should be perfect in length for you.normally 35

I'm tempted by the Sim. What kind of fringe was on it originally, and where?

Hi!
The fringe was like the one on this skirt: https://www.dahlal.com/default.aspx?...1&s1=1159&s2=0 :page 7, called ovations style or plum pleasures. The fringe was silver.
For me personally, I like it better without the fringe as I think it even looks more elegant like that. But that's just my personal opinion...
