c1005 (A Blue, B Red, C Orange, D Champagne) Sparkle Fit-to-Flare Skirts and Gauntlets $45
In a rush? Let me know, I'll do my best. Helpful And Important! Please read Info and FAQ's to the right --> IN ENTIRETY before emailing/calling with ?'s. There are NONE left in any color. I have absolutely no idea if these will be available again; if they are I'll do my best to get them. They can NOT be ordered. Unfortunately I don't have the resources to personally alert people when something they like or similar to what they want comes in (I get 100's of requests like that), I wish I could. It will be extremely helpful and save both your time and mine if you would please NOT contact me asking if there are any more (NO), if there WILL be any more (ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA), if you can order this (NO), or if I can tell you when there are more (NO). Thank you very much. - K Troupe ordering (5/6 or more): Something similar to this item MAY be orderable in quantities of 5 to 6 or more; I would have to check. No matter what, it's generally impossible to order and get exact replicas of a costume, even with photos, etc. If an item is available for multiple ordering, you submit a detailed request of what you would LIKE, and you will get something of equivalent style, but rarely exact. Troupe ordering is best done just prior (but not TOO last minute) to supplier's trips to the Mid East, generally in February and August (varies somewhat year to year). Deposits required. Contact me (Karolinka) for details, but please only if you are serious, as the process is fairly time consuming. Thank you! If large version photos don't seem very large, especially the detail, which should be pretty gigantic (on most you should be able to see individual beads, though some aren't that large), you may need to do this (applies to Internet Explorer (IE) only): Click the "Tools" menu at the top of the IE window. Click "Internet Options". Click the "Advanced" tab. You'll see a "Settings" list of items you can check or uncheck. Scroll down until you see the heading "Multimedia." There should be a checkbox setting something along the lines of "enable automatic image resizing." You DON'T want automatic image resizing, so uncheck the box if it's checked. CLick the "OK" button. "Automatic image resizing" takes images IE considers too big and makes them smaller, so you never are sure if you are seeing an image at the size the website author intended. Turning off "automatic image resizing" simply means you will see all images at their "real" sizes, it will not affect anything else. 7/24/08 Only Red and Orange Left, double-check below for current availability and sizing. Made in Egypt. These are stretch fabric with glitter the same color as the fabric (no beadwork). Glitter is tiny metallic pinpoint spots, randomly scattered. They do shed glitter somewhat, but it's not outrageous. Cut to fit closely to hips and flare widely at bottom (approximately 105" around the hem). No slit. Back Zipper. Matching long gauntlets. Fabric is lightweight and comfortable. This design is the same that is used very frequently as the base for expensive beaded costumes, very flattering. There are two flaring gores (sections) in the back, which gives the nice curve over the derrier, one piece across the front. Darts in top, fits very smoothly. As is the case all to often with group costumes, there is no elastic at the top. However, these are fairly stretchy and if you are on the smaller half of the "Skirt Top" measurement range you can probably get away with out any, at least for a while. Short back zipper, all seem to lay nice and flat. Fabric doesn't unravel (same as most lycra), so seams are simple, no finishing on inside raw edges (you rarely see anything more than this). They are securely sewn, andf abric edges aren't going to disintegrate over time (like unfinished chiffon). Overall seems a very nice set. Alterations to make smaller OR larger should be a breeze, nothing tricky and no beading obviously. These are all cut from identically sized pieces of fabric, and small variations in size are due to the amount of seam allowance left. Unless noted, they all have at least 1/2" on each side of seam, total of 1" additional (well, 3/4" since you can't sew RIGHT at the edgle) at each seam to let out if necessary. And of course making smaller very simple, just run a new seam inside the original.
Age/Condition: New.

Sizing:
All are made from the same size fabric pieces. Slight differences in the two groups below are due to amount of seam allowance left. There may be additional small differences that show up if you try on one right after another, but are not large enough to accurately measure.
None have elastic. Depending on your size you may not need elastic if skirt is snug enough on you. However, even if skirt fits with it's own stretch, it's advisable to add elastic as the fabric will not hold its memory forever. See easy tip here
