Thread: Costume Potential??

What would you do with this?

depends on the fabric, if it's thin lycra, theres nothing you can do with it. I don't like the bra on it, and the waist strap is too low to actually accentuate a small waist.

Fabric is listed as spandex.

I am more concerned about the fact that they didn't even try to match the spots along the front seam. You might be better off starting from scratch with this.

{{{HUGS}}}

Could you attach firm bra cups to the inside of the top (like some swimsuits) and embellish it along with the "belt" area, and then attach long strips of tan/brown/black/same-animal-print chiffon all around the lower-hip part (below what would be the "belt") to be a kinda handkerchief hem skirt?

Too much underboob to make a bra look nice under it, and even if you could attach some kind of skirt I agree with Tahira.

Yes, Tahira - I'm thinking this might be good to use as a pattern to make a costume using a better, more uniform material?

When you have it all figured out, here are some shoes for it: http://www.appledanceshoes.com/image...%20Leopard.jpg

but it could be a great inspiration for a dress pattern. that type of top/ mid section [of course scaled to flatter you] with an l. rose trumpet skirt style bottom with "up to there" slit over one leg. and matching gauntlets, headband.

THTX was saying on another thread that boy shorts with a front seam gave her a bad case of "camel toe." Something to think about!

I might crawl around on my hands and knees in it, but I wouldn't jump...nope

Light a big bon fire with it...polyester goes up real nice and bright...
