    Never worn Dahlal still looking for a home!

    Any interest? I realize I plan to dance only 2 times more this year and need to clear out the closet. These are 2 of my best costumes but they've just been sitting in the closet.

    First, is this Dahlal outfit. Purchased from another Bhuzzer, never worn by either of us.
    https://www.dahlal.com/ctl/showcostu...3_close_lg.jpg
    The one I have for sale is blue/silver. $350 plus shipping and insurance. who ever buys this is getting a FABULOUS DEAL! Comes with arm bands.

    Skirt: 36" waist, 36" length
    Bra: Underbust: 34", Neck halter ties: 13". Also has shoulder straps.
    Inside cup measurments: 6" vertical, 8" horizontal, 8" diagonal


    Second is a used Sim Moda. Gorgeous yellow/lime shade with ruffles. $330 plus shipping and insurance.
    Measurements: Inside Bra - 6" Vertical, 6 1/2 horizontal, 7 3/4" diagonal, 30" underbust
    Comes with a shoulder shrug. Neck to sleeve: 18" Middle back opening: 24"

    Skirt: Has a back zipper. Waist with closed zipper: 30" An armband has been added to extend the waist to 33". I was going to fill in the gap with some leftover matching material. (I have as 34" upper hip)
    Length: 34" to 36"

    FULL DISCLOSURE: While measuring, I noticed the inside lining of the bra/shrug is more worn than I remembered. I also found two rips in the inside bra lining which I will sew back together. I have cleaned the outfit as best I can in warm water and laundry detergent. I also scrubbed the marks with a toothbrush.
    Oh, and I found a small brown mark on one of the lower ruffles which I couldn't remove. Not visible from audience... and if someone can see it, they are too close and need a good kick!

    Yellow SIM will be back on the market after refurbishment.

    If there is any interest, I will post detailed measurements.

    Great prices for these 2 fabulous costumes. I have the blue one in periwinkle and I think the original price was at least 675 -- and briefly (so briefly I never wore it, ha!) I owned TanyaLV's Sim just like this one before reselling (watermelon color). Both are gorgeous, high end sparkers. Give-away prices!!!! (Enabling testimonial, LOL!!!!)

    No, not quite. Mine comes with a matching yellow/lime shoulder shrug, not the black armbands. The bra back doesn't include the black fringe either.

    I'm still interested. Can you post some pics or email them to athallia @ gmail.com? I'm specially interested in seeing the changes to the skirt, the original 30" waist would've been perfect for me.

    I'd say there's a little bit of stretch. The skirt is sewn to the belt. Is it the belt length you are worried about or the skirt? Yes, I'd accept a payment plan.

    Unfortunately, the belt is rigid so there is no extra stretch. Though you could use one of the armbands to extend the length. Edna
