SOLD- Modified Red costume - $225

I bought this set for $400 earlier this year. However, this costume set never really fit me since it arrived at my doorstep. Since I badly needed a red costume with 2 slits for a fusion dance in a month's time, I made do with whatever I had. I have performed 3 times in this costume and I probably won't need it anymore.

I had quite a bit of additions onto the costume itself, without removing any part of the existing design. The additions were all hand-sewn onto the costume, no glue was used. Thus, you may remove them easily. Read below for details:

Bra: Cup big C/D underbust 36" ( I have added red lycra around the bra with crystal chains at intervals. I have sewn the cups closer and lined the top with lacy ruffles. The existing halter bra strap is hidden behind the red lycra. I did not remove the original design, only add on. You can undo the additions easily.)

Upper Hips: 32-35"

Lower Hips: 35-40"

Length of skirt: 38", double front slits
( I have hand-sewn lacy ruffles along the edge of the skirt. I did not remove the beadings on the skirt edge but they are currently hidden by the lacy ruffles. Once again, you can remove the ruffles easily)

1 arm band, 1 arm band with sleeves ( there is a little hole that needs mending- see pic), 1 hair band

Picture taken with flash and without. The true colour is the darker red.

Notice that the original halter strap will covered by the red lycra halter tie back.
