New costume finished!

I have been dreaming and slaving away on my MATA HARI UNVEILED costume. I am so in love with it! I feel like it is a dream come true.

here is the write up about it:

that;s really beautiful and so close to Mata Hari's costume that it's almost creepy. I'll definetly put the new gothic BD-revelations dvd on my list, and I eagerly await the mata hari unveiled site!

Stunning and different costume.Do you have any closer pics so as to see the detailed work?

Most of your costumes are real art pieces.

Wow, and double wow! I clicked on your link and had a further look, and it's just amazing how you have recreated her whole costume ensemble and dance from photos. We need a bellydance museum just to house your amazing creations. Perhaps you can open one in your lounge room and start charging admission!

Sarah,

Beautiful work as always - and gorgeous top photo in particular. I love how your photos are always just outstanding and set the bar for professional BD photography as far as I'm concerned!

Doris Day as Mata Hari

Beautiful, Sarah! I have been an admirer of your work ever since I discovered your site a few years ago.

I was watching "Glass Bottom Boat" last night (I'm a Doris Day fan!) and had to laugh at that movie's version of Mata Hari:



and a very small actual photo that shows the bright, metallic colors:


Of course, your version is much more elegant! (but I still love Doris in that crazy headdress)

Wow!

Gorgeous! Your work is inspiring. I love the attention to detail, and that there is a story behind the costume.
