rafiah, interested in a trade for my red turkish and madame abla for the green?

This one-of-kind "invoke the goddess costume" is still available with possibility of payments. You will look like a goddess in the intricate beading, amazing royal purple and lime green color combination and completely unique design and extremely weel made. Feel free to write with any questions. Someone should be dancing in this.

This is gorgeous! My favorite color combo.... Im a DD cup though and need a longer skirt....can you please write back with a phone number or address of invoke the goddess design, I tried to get onto the website but no luck..... Thanks, Sukira

*maria* · 10-25-2007, 09:04 AM

Sukira, I tried it on. it's stunning. I remember the cups being a little big on me and I'm a small to medium D cup.
If you don't mind a little cleavage, it might work.
Ask Rafia to measure the depth of the cups for you......
P.S. the rib cage measurement is wide too, so that also helps if your bigger busted.

Sukira · 10-25-2007, 09:26 AM

Thanks, Maria, Im a FULL DD..... these girls are...BIG! I would have to add material probably around the bust, and still have cleavage.... Bye for now, Sukira

Rafiah · 10-25-2007, 01:32 PM

Here you go Surika...Main page Invoke the Goddess

Also, do realize though, that these costumes are one-of -kind designs. also, I was there when Maria tried it on and it was surprisingly a bit bit for her D cups....not much cleavage for her in this bra so it may very well fit. There is also alot of width around rib cage. You might want to give this one a try...I have never seen anything like it...truely gorgeous..

I think I felt my ears burning!!

Hi Rafiah I'm very sad that this costume is having a hard time finding it's dancer.

The link you posted seems to be to an old webpage lost somewhere in cyberspace.
Sukira: Here is a link to my main page that should work Invoke the Goddess Designs-Custom Costumes for Belly Dance and Beyond

or you can reach me at :invokethegoddess@hotmail.com

If it fit me a little better, I would have definitely bought it.

Surida · 10-25-2007, 04:43 PM

Would love to see a pic of it on a person.

sagira · 10-25-2007, 04:55 PM

OMG! That is to die for. I think that is one of the nicest and most unique costumes I have seen. Top would probably fit, but the skirt is too small.

No worries rafiah, I'm actually a 10 on the bottom, and it was big on me in the hips and around the booty.

I am 41" upper hip ( smaller part) & 42" lower hip. I also don't like skirts to
cling,

I like them to "skim" so the "sins" are kept secret

I am a heavy full 39 D cup. I recently purchased a costume which was advertised as a good size D ( ebay) the skirt is a dream, fits perfectly, the top is more like a small to medium C I think. So I was rather disappointed. I sit and study the bra and try to work out how I can alter it to fit, but methinks it would be me who has to have "alterations"

Your gorgeous costume has me drooling but I am worried it might not fit, and being in Australia it makes it more expensive with postage and conversion. So I have to just dream and let someone else have the honour of owning it.
Thanks anyway

Rafiah · 10-26-2007, 04:22 AM

Maria, can you help us here?

Sariqa....I completely understand your reservations. If I can measure any more and it will help, let me know. I really think the skirt will fit well without showing "sins" since it is thicker type stetchy but not a real thin fabric that shows every little bump. It is a type of velvet that smooths rather than clings and is smooth. All I can say about the bra is that Maria is a full D and there was room to spare. The bra will absolutely accomodate 39" around with still some length left.

So Maria....what do you think since you are closer to the sizes that Sariqa is talking about whereas I am a peewee in comparison.

I have also tried this costume on. It is a true D cup. I am a DD. If I wasn't spilling out the sides it would have fit me beautifully. I am a big girl with lots of hips (42" to 45") and the skirt was very flattering. If I weren't 5'10" tall the skirt would have been fabulous. (It was about 4" too short.) If you are the right height, it sounds like you would be a perfect fit for this costume!

invokethegoddess · 10-26-2007, 11:16 AM

I would love to help with the actual measurements of the costume so I will add my 2 cents!
I tend to make costumes(when not doing custom measurements) in my own measurements...just incase I can't bear to part with them.
I am 5 ft7" my hips are 41" and my lower hips/bum is 45" The costume fit me well with a little room for stretch. I could definately get my fingers in the waist band an pull it out a few inches. I am a 38 D cup and the bra is an actual D cup made with a good "T-shirt" bra. (they tend to have better coverage than push up type bras.)
I do have some costume scraps if anyone were in need of material to make slight alterations if that helps

Sagira...you sound like you and I could be body doubles!! although I think I have a little more booty than you.

*maria* · 10-26-2007, 02:47 PM

I am a 35 inch upper hip and 39 inch lower, so that is why it was loose on me.

Rafiah · 10-26-2007, 05:11 PM

For all who have been inquiring about this beauty...the designer of this costume "Invoke the Goddess" has just posted more info on it's sizing as well as her own measurements since it was made to fit her in case she could not let go of it. she also said that she has some extra costume pieces/scraps if needed.
Please check it out....it appears to be very helpful.

sagira · 10-26-2007, 06:22 PM

Thanks everyone for the feedback. It sounds like it would fit. Rafi'ah I have PM'ed you

Sukira · 10-29-2007, 08:26 AM

Hi , Im back after a weekend away.. Thanks so much for responding. I tried your webpage and I only get the one page, I cant click on anything else. What to do from there? I will be emailing you.... Im very interested in a custom costume from you. Thanks for putting up the measurments, I am a very full DD cup. The rest sounds like the costume selling here, would be perfect..... I love it!!!!! Thanks to everyone else for responding.... Be well, take care... Sukira

superbunny · 11-09-2007, 08:38 PM

Rafiah · 11-12-2007, 12:48 PM

Invokethegoddess, that is the most drop-dead gorgeous costume I have ever seen...I think my eyes bugged when the page loaded! I wish I had a bigger chest! hope it finds a home to someone here

najla86 · 11-13-2007, 02:02 PM

unfortunately (and maybe fortunately for my bank account) the skirt would just be too short on me once its on and my hips take up some inches
