    Sold!!; GAUGING INTEREST; OOAK Green Glamorous Lace from Egypt

    Specific Measurements (Optional): small
    Seller's Country: USA
    I'm thinking of selling this classy OOAK costume...made by Leila of Cairo's nanny.... so much intricate handiwork...each flower on the lace skirt was beaded over. The bra has middle chest straps, plus clear ties that are halter style. Hard to see, but the top of the bra is nude with rhinestones. The skirt is so solid and well fitting.

    I can get measurements later if there is interest. But in short...my hips are 34.5", bra is a B, and my height is 5"3".
    Asking $550 + shipping. Reduced to $480.....reduced again to $425. Truly unique and well fitting.

    Just added body pics...sorry for the dark looking color and fuzzyness- its really quite green. The first picture in photobucket is more like the color.

    OK, here are the specs:

    Bra: very padded, so on the outside: 7" H x 7" V x 7.25" D
    Band has a stretch in the back, 31.5 without, and 34" with stretch
    middle straps are 13" and 12"
    I added wire around the cups to mold them better (can take out)

    Skirt: Upper hip unstretched is 32" and stretched is 34.5" maybe more (There are 2 thick elastics on the sides)
    There is a nude panel over the inside of the hips to cover yourself, but the rest of the skirt is see-through lace.

    Length is variable: in front is 34-35" and back is 36-37", but I hand-shortened it, so you can take it out to make it longer about 1" in front and over 1.5 in back. The chiffon panel was put in for me (don't like leg showing) and is a bit shorter then the rest of the skirt, but it looks fine.

    Disclaimer: I added the beaded fringe that you see on the hips. I used the extra beading that the nanny gave me, plus some of my green for the ends. Adds more glitter and movement.

    Guantlets are the same material as the panel.

    This is really lovely, need some money now
    It sounds like your measurements are very close to mine also, would be interested to see the length of skirt & hip measurement.
    Any interest in trade or part trade?
    Thanks.

    What does OOAK mean? I'm sorry I've always wanted to ask that
    Also was this previously owned by Leila ?

    Sharifeh, I once also didn't know what that meant:) Its One-Of-A-Kind.
    No, it wasn't Leila's. Her wonderful nanny makes costumes, and was selling this one at Camp Negum last year. I am working now, but can post measurements and a better description when I get home.

    This is beautiful and I am looking for a green costume. Seems like it might be close to my size, so I would also like to see measurements for bra and skirt.

    This is stunning Irit. I wish my costumes would sell so I could justify this.

    Should've seen my face when I started on Bhuz and read OOAK BB KOTN in ICU. I was all Huh?

    Wow, that woman must be some kind of zen master to sew all of those teeny tiny beads on all of those flowers. That is one masterpiece of a costume!

    Hi Jess!!!!! Miss you.
    Yes, and do you see all those tiny dark green stones all over? She has a lot of patience, and she is SO calm and sweet.

    Corrections on the color...even the flash body pic is dark. The truer color is more like the first picture in the Photobucket series - its a bright but deep rich green.

    I was just thinking the same thing. This is amazing. How short can the skirt go?
