ISO L. Rose trumpet skirt (or beledi dress?) for a big booty

[Zana]

Anybody got one? I know it's a long shot, but I have some surprising things in my closet and bet you do, too.

L. Rose trumpet skirt, any variation, for hips in the neighborhood of 48", to go with a gold Great Loop. Matching top a plus!
Length: I wear 36-37 but am very willing to hem if everything else is right.
Fabric: Velvet, preferably crushed or printed, but will happily consider luxury velvet as an alternative.
Colors: Flexible but darker/richer shades are better than pastels, and I love prints. Cinnamon tie-dye would be beyond awesome.

I'd also be happy to consider an L. Rose beledi dress along the lines of the above, size 16ish (XL/XXL), flared skirt preferred.

Thanks for any leads!

I have two L Rose Deluxe Flared Beledi dresses in luxury velvet, with slit, in the size 16/18 range. Both have the under-the-bust neckline. One is a deep fuchsia and one is the twilight black with multicolor sparkles. I have only worn the fuchsia twice and the black once, I lost a lot of weight after purchasing them and they no longer fit.

The fuschia has the bell-sleeves and the black has elbow length sleeves. There is a photo of the fuschia in my gallery: http://www.bhuz.com/index.php?cmd=/p...unyah/id_1198/

Dunyah, that fuchsia is gorgeous, and I love pink with gold! I'm interested in the black as well but not quite sure I can justify two -- let me think on that a bit. What would be the price for each or both?

In the costuming department, your loss is literally my gain.

ETA: Please hold off on paying me for the red glitter set until we chat about these dresses -- we could do a swap/partial swap if you're interested.

If Zana passes on either, let me know! I am interested in one or both.

Monica, chica, are you by any chance cleaning out your closet? I covet your Egyptian sparklies and am expecting to drop a couple of sizes in the not-too-distant future.

Not planning on selling any of my working/pro stuff anytime soon. I'll keep you posted if I do!

Thanks! Will stop staking out your closet now.

I have a dark purple luxury velvet trumpet skirt with slit and matching top with 3/4 sleeves. The skirt and top are banded with purple metal skin. Size 18-20 about 36" long but seems to fit me at 34" when wearing it. I'm 5'7" pm me if interested.

[Zana]

Hi, Jasani. These sound pretty. Just to clarify, did you mean that the skirt is a couple of inches short for you? And what's the neckline on the top? Thanks!

[Zana]

OK, I'm buying both of Dunyah's pretty dresses because I am hopelessly indecisive when the subject is velvet and sparkly. Monica is next in line.

Still interested in Jasani's skirt and eager to hear of any others out there.

Thanks again!

Sweet. Sorry for butting into your 'in search of' thread. :)

[Zana]

Never apologize for that -- you're just fine! I'm the one trying to swipe the costumes off your back before you've even finished wearing them.

[Zana]

Got Ms. Dunyah's beautiful dresses -- thanks very much! The black fits me like a second skin (purr) and I have hopes of getting into the fuchsia sometime soon (fingers crossed). The colors are phenomenal.

Still looking for a skirt and top, especially in crushed or printed velvet. Let me know if you have something for me. Thanks!

jasani-

if Zana is not interested in your purple skirt and top, let me know. I would love to see pictures of yours. I might be interested-I have been looking for something purple. :)

Zana-

If you ever sell those dresses, let me know! :D

PS-I am still trying to raise $$ to buy some of your stuff. I am contemplating a yard sale and checking each and every day for my stimulus refund check.

[Zana]

Update for Ambriehl and anyone else who's interested:

- I passed on Jasani's purple set, so it may well still be available.

- As beautiful as the fuchsia dress is -- and wow, it really is -- I've had to sell the bedlah I bought it to go with, so it's back on the market. $110 includes shipping.

Zana...trade with boot? Black for Fushia?

[Zana]

Anala: tempted! Another buyer is considering it, but if she decides against and you still have the black -- let's talk.

[Souzan]

Zana, I am so tempted but (slapping self!) I have the same dress in purple velvet and I am craving one in lycra in a bright color (with the sweetheart neckline and cutouts like Anala's). Anala, I think your's would fit me but I have waaay too much black stuff and need color. Actually I need to dig through my costume stash and sell some stuff. Anyone interested in gold on gold paillette dress?
