Help with Questions?? Coral/Salmon Bedlah 34 C/D, Belt 34 Max, $100+S/H and Scarab/Kuchi Coin Bedlah set, Hair Falls, Etc.
This is a great bedlah, I love the detailing, but I've come to the conclusion that it will take more surgery than I can handle to make it fit. I can't remember (or find the thread) where I purchased it, so not sure what I bought it for, but will consider reasonable offers.
The color is brighter than the photos show it, the junky camera on my phone washed it out a bit.
The belt is the same front and back, 2 17 inch pieces, sewn on one side, clips on the other. It is 2.5 inches wide at the sides, 7 inches wide at the midpoint. Fringe is 11.5 inches long with 5 gold beads at the end of each strand.
The Bra is 34.5 inches maximum, with 6 inch fringe, with a repeated gold bead motif. The shoulder straps are currently 14 inches long with 18 inches in total length if you need to lengthen them. Cups measure 9 inches across, 8 inches up and down.
Set comes with 2 wristlets, each 7 inches long and approximately 2 inches wide.
Also available (Originally mine, but willing to sell or possibly include) -
$15 Cotton 1 full circle skirt with pink paillette trim on bottom
$10 Cotton veil/wrap with small embroidered detail
Both are a pretty good color match for the bedlah. Can also remove the bright pink trim and put something more color matched to the bedlah on the skirt.
For $10, I will throw in several bags of color matched sequins and beads that match the fringe beads purchased from Cartwright Sequins. (Forgot to take a photo)

I think I bought the belt for $45 or $50, and the top for $40. It's been worn for only 2 brief pieces, and never lost a coin and is in better condition now than when I bought it. (I added the center dangle (green kuchi type piece) on the bra and fixed some of the metal loops to make them more secure.)
$80 + S/H

Welll...if you are crafty, the wristlettes would probably add length to the waist. It's two pieces, so they could be added evenly on each side.
I bought some sequins and beads that match pretty well, if you are crafty, you could extend the belt with the wrist bits and and create a bra extension. It's just more project than I can take on right now. So it's sitting sadly in a corner.
Oh. Typo in the posting. I wrote 24- should be 34. But it says it right in the title.

Hi...can someone help me answer some questions about this? I am not that experienced with costume fitting and I want to make sure if I sell her this costume, it's going to be a good costume for her.
1) As far as the bra. What I am really, really most concerned about is getting maximum cleavage and the overflow look without a "quadboob" effect. Also bra related--I am a 32D to 32DD to 30F and I am concerned that the band will just be too big.
2) the v cut of the belt will make my hips look even thinner, which I don't want.
3) if the bottom of the belt sits nicely than the top of the belt will stick out--I'm sure you've seen that.
My Note: I think that proper placement of the clasps will help this - so that the belt is as tight as it needs to be where it needs to be tight.
What do you honestly think of those issues?

I'm not a costumer either, but to best tell if a bra is going to fit you, measure the inside cup measurments of bra that you do like and compare it.
As far as the belt, if it's a two peice belt this shouldn't be as much as an issue as you can move the placements of the clasps. Also, most dancers add elastic to the inside of the belt to eliminate this gappage, easy peasy to do. So if it is an issue the buyer can always do that. In fact, all my belt sets have this extra elastic sewn in, it's pretty standard modification to do.
When you buy on line there is always some level of risk. That's why you see so many of us reposting things. It's defianly a learning process!
