    Leila of Cairo's Camouflage Minidress Costume--SOLD



    Here is a camo minidress that I got on Bhuz a few years ago. It was originally owned by Leila of Cairo. Asking $250, including US shipping. International shipping will be extra. First to express firm intent gets it. PayPal only, please. Sold as-is; please ask questions before committing to buy. Thanks for looking!



    This costume consists of a grey camouflage print lycra dress (with holographic detail), a beaded bra, and beaded boy shorts. This doesn't have any labels on it, but it looks like it may be a Noussa. This would be great for oriental performances, shaabi, or even Latin dance.

    Measurements and info:

    Bust measures 16" across the front unstretched. (Approx. 32" circumference)
    Bust measures 19" across the front when stretched. (Approx. 38" circumference)
    Natural waist measures 11" across the front unstretched. (Approx. 22" circumference)
    Natural waist measures 15" across the front streched. (Approx. 30" circumference)
    High hip measures 12" across the front unstretched. (Approx. 24" circumference)
    High hip measures 17" across the front stretched. (Approx. 34" circumference)
    Dress measures 33" top to bottom.
    Slit measures 8".
    Bra measures approx. 30" end to end.
    Bra straps (over-the-shoulder style) each measure 18" long.
    Bra is currently padded quite a bit, so I measured the outside of the cups.
    Outside of cup, top to bottom: 6"
    Outside of cup, left to right: 6"
    Outside of cup, diagonally: 7.5"
    Boy shorts measure approx 17" across at the hip, unstretched.
    Boy shorts measure approx 12" across at the waistband, unstretched.
    Rise on boy shorts measures 8.5"

    About me: I am 5'9", dress size is usually 2 or 4. I think this will also fit a 0 or 6 because of the stretchiness. I am 33" bust, 26" waist, 36" hip. My bra size is 30C or 30D (depending on the brand). I have a friend with similar measurements who is about 5'2"--she tried this on and it didn't look so good on her. So I think you need to be average or taller height.

    Note that you could extend this bra in the back, no problems, because it is hidden by the dress. This bra would work great with your other folkloric costumes, like underneath a saidi or beledi dress, because it is very sparkly and doesn't have any fringe.
