    Cobalt Raqia needs TLC - only $95

    Specific Measurements (Optional): A-C cup, 30-38" uh, 38" length
    Seller's Country: Canada
    I bought this from Latriamou for the price I am asking. I didn't realize it was as much of a project as it is. Anyone crafty or with time (what I don't have these days) could easily turn this into a great costume. It is in the same state as when I received it (I haven't touched it).

    Measurements:
    Underbust 12”
    End to end: 39.5’
    Cups outside 6”v x 7.5’h x 7”d
    Padded fully - A-C?
    Skirt length: 38”
    Uh: 30-38”
    Lower hip: 32”-40”

    Condition:
    - Fading: the fabric base is black with a cobalt-amethyst colour on top. From sweat? or simply wear? the cobalt colour has faded from the bum (below the ruching), between the cups, and on the bra band. Could easily be covered with jewels, beads, fringe, etc. On another costume with the similar bum fading, I simply gathered/ruched it up there and it hid it completely.
    - Latriamou had glue gunned small jewels and rhinestone decorations to the armbands and cups. The glue is visible. She had suggested using a hairdryer to remove them. I hadn't tried that.

    $100 includes shipping in Canada & US
    Finale sale
    paypal cdafoe@silverpixels.ca

    Cheers!

    Re: Cobalt Raqia needs TLC - only $95

    I will try to get a body picture. I need to get someone to take it . . .

    I included photos of the damage fabric in my original post. The 2 close-ups of the front and back top of the skirt show the fading. The close up shot of the spacer between the cups shows the fading there. Does that help?

    okay! How about this, girls: Shaharazad has until this time tomorrow to say if she will take it or not. If I don't hear from her by then it goes to HabibiLeilah.
