Green egyptian costume, BRAND NEW!

sha-ri · 10-04-2007, 04:30 AM

Edited to give exact sizes, the costume is for someone a bit shorter and has a bit more stretch in the hips as my friend told me first!

I'm selling this costume for a friend as sitting around waiting for my baby to come I have more time than her answering questions or mailing detail pics.

She ordered it but unfortunately she's pretty tall and the costume turned out a bit too short on her, so she's selling it again brand new, only worn for the pics.

The costume is a 1-piece dress in a two-piece look with 2 sleeves and headband and my friend would throw in a matching green veil.
It's green lycra heavily beaded with gold and green beads, sequins in different green colors, iridescent and colored stones and LOTS of fringes.

With all the fringes and beading it is pretty heavy, I would tend to sew elastics to the top of the skirt so the mesh doesn't get worn out but this is just my opinion;-)
There are some decent water spots on the skirt that hopefully wil when washed.

The size should be about a 8 to 12 (german 36-40), bra B or small C-Cup.
Skirt is 38 inchs long measured lying flat. My friend is 5'9", the skirt should fit best someone about 5'5" to 5'7". It can be easily shortened from the bottom as there are several inchs between stitching and bottom edge.

Detail pics on request.

The original price was 350 Euro, my friend would sell for 320 Euro (what is about 450USD), international shipping included and throw a matching veil in.

Well, it will still take some weeks but I wouldn't mind if she would hurry a bit, the side effects of pregnancy are getting annoying to painful.
We still aren't complete with everything but the most important stuff we got so if she wants to she could come;-)

That's my problem as well. I would have kept it myself otherwise

The workmanship is excellent, the beading even looks good on the inside, what you can't say from all egyptian costumes.
But no chance I would fit into a size 8/10 in any near future, I think the last time I did that was about 15 years ago...

*Bump*
My friend just gave me the sizes for this, so it's a bit wider but for a bit shorter dancer than she thought at first.

I wish I were taller. I love this costume and the color is so cheerful.
