LAST REDUCTION--600 INC SHIP!!! WATERMELON SIM PIX ADDED NEW! $700 B cup

[naiyahayal]

The best pictures of this costume are on Dahlal's site -- Under Oriental Originals, Page 2, it's called "Rio Sunset II". (Web special price is 849.95, 924.95 value).


LOVING THIS COSTUME MORE & MORE, SO DECIDED TO DO ONE FINAL REDUCTION & RETURN HER TO HER FRIENDS AFTER TODAY IF SHE IS STILL HERE!

NO NIBBLES--AND WHEN I TRIED IT WITH A BLACK VEIL, FELL IN LOVE WITH IT ALL OVER AGAIN---SOOOOOOOOO, DECIDED TO KEEP IT, AT LEAST FOR A WHILE!

Brilliant color -- this is a showstopper for sure! Lots of crystals and pretty ruffles. Very comfortable -- sleeves are joined behind the neck, so they don't slip. NEW, NEVER WORN! I LOVE this costume, but just need to sell a few!

REDUCED TO $700 (INCLUDES SHIPPING WITHIN US, $45 outside US)

I can take more detailed pictures tomorrow, but really you can see it best on Dahlal's site. (SORRY, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO A LINK TO THE SITE OR THE SPECIFIC PICTURE)

Measurements:
BRA is 30 along ribcage, currently padded for a perfect B/small C - you can take out the padding for a full C, but no larger. Cups measure 7" x 7" measuring outside (can't measure inside because of the padding).
SKIRT: 34" upper hip (exactly, no stretch)
lower hip is 36-40" at least (an inch or so more would be ok, it's stretch lycra and there is a slit where the ruffle is). Length is approx 38" (ruffled edge)

INCLUDES BRA, SKIRT, SLEEVES, TURBAN, NECKPIECE & VEIL--GORGEOUS!!

FIRST TO POST HERE WITH "I'LL TAKE IT" HAS DIBS! FINAL SALE--THANKS FOR LOOKING!

Hey Naiyal,

Is the skirt heavy? I was eyeing this on dahlal sometime back. Would it hold on my smaller hips? I would love to see the colors taken off your cam. :)

Thank you, thank you, thank you! You are a sweetheart AND a computer expert! Sooo nice of you to take the time! Yeah, a lot of pretty ruffles, huh? I was trying to figure out how much the costume cost in terms of "how much for each ruffle" Thalia is agonizing enough over the Sahar, and I know how emotionally difficult a "Sahar decision" can be! Once you're hooked, tho, there's no turning back!

Hi, Dansefever! You know, I think this one WOULD work for you! How's the color, do you like it? I'll get some more closeups with my camera, but I think actually Dahlal's come out more accurate color-wise. The hot pink Bella would have been too large in the hips and cups for you, for sure, but this one might just be perfect -- what's your upper hip again? (I'm almost positive the cups would be perfect).

[naiyahayal]

PS -- no, not very heavy! Very, very, comfortable!

[naiyahayal]

.......reduced it to $700 plus $10 shipping within U.S. .... looks like a tough month for all of us!

[dansefever]

Hey Naiyal,

My top hips are about 31.5inches. The skirt is actually 3inches longer than what I usually wear. The ruffles might end up sweeping the floor if i don't wear any heels/

Arghh let me ponder about it as I also like your other new ones on listing. You are killing me hehe

[thaliadances]

It is a pretty one

Let me check it tonight -- you MIGHT be able to shorten it by making a fold from the top under the belt part -- not sure, let me look at it. Otherwise, for sure you'd have to wear heels! This one is MADE for heels, by the way!! I THINK the hips would work if you used the old "sew a piece of elastic band inside" trick to hug your hips a bit more. Let me check, tho, if you really like it -- don't want to talk you into something that won't work...... I was thinking about you when I posted the lavender Eman--sounds like a better fit, but that's just my guess....!

Hi -- sorry to keep you waiting, it was a looong day! I checked, and I can't find any way to shorten this -- unless someone has an idea -- the ruffle is too much a part of the design on the bottom,and there's a lot of bling at the top. I think TanyaLV is an EXPERT on Sims, but I don't know if she has ever shortened one..........sorry, I tried! (I'll find something else to tempt you with, not to worry, haha!)

[naiyahayal]

This is such an unusual color, I'm afraid if I try it on again, she might sneak back into her costume hide-out.........

[naiyahayal]

Reduced to $675 for today only! If it doesn't sell for this price, I'm going to sneak her back in with her "friends"......I'm remembering why I loved it when I got it.......hopeless.....sigh........letting to is not always easy .....!

[Elviza Isis]

OOOOHHH MYYYY!! You people are killing me today-- why oh why did I click on the dreaded swap meet link? This is the 5th gotta-have-it already, but I think it's in first place-- can someone please buy a house in Miami immediately?! Help a sister out...

[dansefever]

Ah long day for me too. I would like to see how yours look on a model if you dont mind.. so tempting! i can easily work out the skirt length with a 3inch heels and try to work out the elastic bit on the hips.

I shall think about the pricing :)

Here you go!

[naiyahayal]

ps -- That's a Sim model, not me !!

[Amani_C]

That is absolutely stunning!!!

[naiyahayal]

no nibbles, so she's going back to play with her costume buddies for a while ........ so I have an excuse to keep her!

[naiyahayal]

Dansefever, here is the thread, since this costume is "still in your head", haha! It's tucked away now, but might be coaxed to return to the Swap Meet.....

[maliam]

A friend of mine has this in the yellow/green color. It's gorgeous! Especially in person.

[Kostana]

This is absolutely stunning. I saw one like it in red and black when I was in Turkey. I wish i had $700 to spend....
