Finally all elements are in place after the move: i found the costumes, my camera, have internet, and the uploader to connect my laptop to my camera. so here we go,
Blue "fake eman" Saidi Trouser costume.
Beautifull, funky and great for raks assaya!
Bought it second hand (but never worn) and only used it once myself for pictures.
trousers: 39 inches, can be shortened at the top. and depending how high you wear this.
upperhip: 36 inches or a bit more. less, you will need to add elastic.
lower hip: about 40 inches
bra: C cup (with padding) - small D cup. bra has minimal decoration, is meant to be worn with vest
backstrap is 36 inches.
comes with a vest (which has an 'egyptian' zipper that needs replacing if you want to close it, alternatively you could keep it open or pin it to the bra)
nice head scarf
all decorated with blue pearls and large turquoise scarabs. some glued, some sewed on, and some will need re-gluing.
the whole costume is basically a copy of the Eman saidi trouser costume Leila used to wear
i can let this go for 300 $ INCLUDING shipping worldwide!
i accept paypal
