c0906 Rose Lycra Costume, Flaring Chiffon Inset Skirt & Lattice Details $390
SOLD
Like most of the costumes on this site, this was a one-of-a-kind piece hand crafted by an Egyptian artisan. THIS COSTUME CAN NOT BE ORDERED. Will there be more? Individual artisans will occasionally repeat designs, but never exactly and rarely in the same color. It's impossible to say if or when these will show up or in what size or color. YOU CAN'T ORDER THIS COSTUME. Thank you.
Made in Egypt. Lycra costume, loads of beading with many types of beads and details. Beautiful rich rose pink color, not wishy-washy; definitely not baby pink.
Skirt is fit to flare, with extra flare provided by multiple insets of chiffon. Open lattice detail over left leg has four narrow strips of lycra hanging down, all edges trimmed with looping glass square cut bugle bead and iridescent pink flower shaped sequins. These strips in combination with the chiffon flares make this skirt amazing when you are really moving, especially spinnning. Back zipper.
Beadwork uses glass square cut bugle beads and seed beads, traditional smooth bugle beads, many types of sequins. Several flower shape sequins used, flat small ones, and larger 3D daisy shapes. Fringe accents throughout hip beadwork use primarily nice acrylic beads, including clear faceted diamonds and large clear rounds on end that also are faceted and have an inner bead "suspended" in them. Several large acrylic rectangle crystals.
Bra is halter style, has lattice detail drop from center, covered with same beading as skirt.
Accessories: None (bracelets in photos not included)
Sizing:
Bra: Should fit range including 34 D/DD, 36 B/C+
Skirt Top: Fabric relaxed = 34", stretches to 40". Has some elastic but needs more for most sizes due to weight of skirt. Will fit a couple of inches smaller with elastic added. Even if skirt fits with it's own stretch, it's advisable to add additional elastic as the fabric will not hold its memory forever. See easy tip here.
Skirt Hips: Fabric relaxed = 36", stretches to 42"
Skirt length: 38" Skirt shorten-ability: would have to be done at hem. No large amounts of beadwork to lose/deal with, just trim around bottom (lose it or rebead), and the lines of sequins/beads coming down along each chiffon/lycra seam. Simple to cut and tie or glue off, but there are a lot of them.
Age/Condition: New.

Know you want it? Make sure you get it by "Expedited Ordering" - immediately send payment for merchandise amount only and it's yours. You'll then owe for shipping. PLEASE do NOT add extra or try to estimate shipping cost. Read "How To Order" for details, obligations.
Until further notice, processing time (time until your order is shipped) may be from 1 up to 7 business days.
Need it fast? Please let me know. Send event name/type & date. Email will get you fastest replies.

If any question arises, the person who pays at least the merchandise price in full for the costume gets the costume (must follow up with shipping payment, if paying separately). Asking for shipping cost or asking for a costume to be held or promising you're going to pay do not hold a costume.
Email inquiries if possible and appropriate, it is much easier for me to quickly answer emails vs. phone calls. Please include both the number and the NAME of the costume you are asking about. Don't forget your ZIP CODE (just your city won't do it) if you want shipping cost.
