c0899 Gold Metallic Fringe with Crystals     $170

SOLD OUT
This was a single run of a custom order, a one-of-a-kind group; once they're gone, they are gone.
THIS COSTUME CAN NOT BE ORDERED INDIVIDUALLY. Will there be more? Extras of troupe orders are always made, many of which are sold through this site. It's possible the stray piece will show up, but it's impossible to know when/how many. It's also possible that a popular costume will be made again in multiples for off-the-rack sales, but it can't be said when.TROUPE ORDERS - (5 or more) It's impossible to have costumes EXACTLY duplicated. However, as with any troupe order, you can place an order (5 or more) based on this style. Contact Karolinka for information on troupe orders.

Made in Egypt. Terrific value, elegant and flashy with many real glass crystals and beading front and back. Stretch fabric, gold holographic overlay (small dots) on black base fabric. Scrolling design in gold glass square cut bugle beads and tiny holographic flat sequins. Every curve ends in a 3/8" real glass crystal (and seem very well set, maybe one missing between the 8 red and gold costumes) and three strand fringe bunch (some skirts seed bead, some square cut bugle). Design goes all around hips, has a nice little dip and crystal/fringe in center back, also dips down towards slit over front left leg. Beadwork and crystals and fringe continue down both sides of slit. Also covers bra.

Skirt is fit-to-flare, slit over front left leg, zipper in back. All edges finished in looping gold glass square cut bugle beads and sequins. Bra has shoulder straps, same beadwork as skirt, center bunch of fringe.

Accessories: None.

Sizing: Scroll Down Below Photos

Age/Condition: New. All of the skirts have at least a few of the tiny gold dots missing, some more than others. The result is tiny black dots. Even the skirts with more of these, not noticeable from literally more than a couple of feet away, certainly not when dancing. These have been handled and travelled (not packed carefully); most likely the dot loss is due to rubbing against the many crystals. Proper care will significantly cut down, if not prevent, this entirely (for example, when transporting, if in a bag, etc., wrap the skirt in a towel before folding so that it doesn't come in contact with itself). See photo and notes with skirt sizes, below. Prices have already been adjusted to take this into account.

> Click For explanation of sizing, how to apply it to you, also some tips on altering. VERY HELPFUL

Bras
Please order by NUMBER; you can include size if you like but the number is what I need. Thanks!

  • 1) SOLD Should fit range including 34 B+/C (maybe large C squeeze), 36 A+/B/narrow or smallish C.
  • 2) SOLD Same as 1
  • 3) SOLD Should fit range including widish 36 C/D, 38 B/C, 40 B.

Skirts
Please order by NUMBER; you can include size if you like but the number is what I need. Thanks!
    Skirt numbers 1 and 2 are the same size:
  • Skirt Top: Fabric relaxed = 27", stretches to 34".Has no elastic. Will fit several inches smaller with elastic added. 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.
  • Skirt Hips: Fabric relaxed = 33", stretches to 38"
  • Skirt length: 37"

    Missing gold spots (again, not noticeable from a few feet away! Very hard to photograph. These really are not that much of a problem, please read more above under Age/Condition, above)

    • Skirt 1) SOLD Larger (relative!) areas of spots missing (like, 2 to 4 tiny missing spots in one place), but in a small area (over thigh front/side), not over entire skirt and not too many in total.
    • Skirt 2) IN STOCK Very small spots widely scattered over most of skirt
    Skirt numbers 3 and 4 are the same size:
  • Skirt Top: Fabric relaxed = 28", stretches to 35".Has no elastic. Will fit several inches smaller with elastic added. 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.
  • Skirt Hips: Fabric relaxed = 34", stretches to 39"
  • Skirt length: 37"

    Missing gold spots (again, not noticeable from a few feet away! Very hard to photograph. These really are not that much of a problem, please read more above under Age/Condition, above)

    • 3) SOLD Fair number of small spots around skirt at thigh height, few larger (still tiny) spots over front left thigh.
    • 4) SOLD Skirt has some kind of spots like those mentioned above, pretty inconsequential, next time I pass by it I'll take note...

    Helpful Info & FAQ's (below)

  • 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 12 business days.
  • Need it fast? Please let me know. Send event name/type & date. Email will get you fastest replies. . Rush charges may apply.
  • 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.
