Title: costume halp!
Post by: Random Girl on August 25, 2011, 11:17:27 PM
Ok kids here's the skinny.  Saturday of Labor Day weekend I have the day off.  I will have Avalon with me as well.  She will be in costume but I sadly don't have any costuming besides my SS stuff.  I hoping to borrow a gown (preferably a modest one as is not overly elaborate).  I am 5'6" and wear a size 10/12.  Any help would be much appreciated and I would take extra good care of it.

Anyone willing or able to assist me would be my bestest friend.

Thanks in advance!

Sweet. Let me know.  I don't check on her as often as I should so email me at randamuko@gmail.com if it's a go so we can arrange pickup.

Many thanks!

YAY for seeing the kiddo!!!!  ;D

I will have an extra bodice, chemise, and skirts in the tent, if you can't find a gown... Bodice might be too big though? 36" Felix.. (and the skirts might be too short?? I want to say they are hemmed at 42" or something like that..)

You know where to find us!  ;)

Or I do have that upper class blue velvet side lace bodice and skirt, again, the bodice might be big on your skinny body (its a bit big on me), and the skirt too short.. you can see pictures on Steve's facebook I think. I wore it in TX and AZ.. If you think its something you might want to wear let me know and I can gather up all the pieces and hoop skirt and stuff.. Oh and the awesome tall hat that goes with it!!! *must find a way to wear that hat with something else!*

Rockin!  Nobility/Merchant class is about the only costume I've never worn and it seems fitting to do so for the 10th year.

AND if I finish it in time, I will have a little SS costume for Avalon.  Complete with black sunglasses and flag.
