    On Hold!- Royal Blue "Fifi Abdo" Sim -OOAK costume

    This blue costume I bought from Shems (see the link to the original post below). She had it made by Sim after being inspired by a costume Fifi Abdo wore.

    Blue Sim $350 + shipping - This is such a delightful comfortable costume and gives an elegant retro feel when combined with the matching body suit. It is a bra, belt, skirt with matching arm accessories, bodysuit, and dance shorts. The skirt has a slit on one side and is two layers.


    Here it is without the body suit.


    Original posting http://www.bhuz.com/bellydance-swap-...-sim-sold.html
    size
    skirt
    38" long

    belt
    36" long + 3" circular medallion that can be used for adjustments.

    bra
    35" underbust
    halter

    Cup A or B - C with a little push up effect (scroll down to see photos of my C cup friend modeling). I am a small D cup and had no problems with the fit. It's a very modest bra style. The bra itself is a padded bra, so you can't remove the padding without carving into the bra.

    cup measurement
    side to side inside 6 1/2"
    up to down inside 5 1/2"
    diagonal inside 6 3/4"
    outside of cup to outside of cup across the front about 13"

    You could use the upper arm bands or the wrist cuffs.

    Intent on the green (if Moondances passes) - The Samba Bella fit so nice, I bet this green would be perfect! My UH is about 35" so do you think it would work?

    Shipping is $10.00 :-)

    I've got the elastic pulled in a bit and set at 34.5".

    Remeasured the bra and the underbust can stretch to 35" maxed out.

    I'll let you know if she does. If the Samba Bella fit you then this would fit you just fine. :)

    I don't know if it can snug up that small. I'm not sure how it would look, especially with the way the cut out is made.

    Yup, that was at Fayruz's going away party. I won't be there Sunday, I'm going to be just getting back from another event out of town. One of these days we'll actually see each other there!

    Ahhhhh~ Love Shems' blue. Don't think it would ever work for me though. Not if the belt is one piece; my UH is like 29-30"...

    How small can the Blue Sim go (belt wise) with out looking too ridiculous? Can you show a close up of the medallion? THANKS ^_^

    Here is what the medallion and back of the belt look like. It's got a bit of a "cupped butt" thing so if you went too small you would lose the symmetry of it. I'm a 34.5". You could probably have it at a 33.5" without it looking strange, but smaller than that would require turning the belt into a two piece and taking it up on the other side as well.
