Re: fixing a costume/making a dress
Cut outs will not make the LRose beledi dress fit more snugly--just the opposite. It will have more "give." What you can do is take in the side seams or add long torso darts in the front and back. A simple way to add a little flash would be to sew sequin and beaded trim around the neck, arm holes, hem and side slits. Then wear it with a really fancy hip scarf.
The other costume looks lovely on you. And I agree with everyone else that you may be less than satisfied if you try to cut it up to add to an LRose skirt. The LRose trumpet skirts are so nice just on their own with bra and belt. They don't need any other adornment.
