After having a baby in 2011 and now that I am pregnant with my second child (Due 12/25/2013) -- I have come to accept I will not be able to wear my Diva Costume again.
I am going to sell it.
It's been hanging in my closet for years and should really be "rocked" by someone at a con.
I am 5 feet 6 inches tall and wore three inch platform shoes under the costume.
I was between size 14 and 16 when I made this - and made it to form fit me in a corset.
A skilled seamstress should be able to alter it.
The Fabric is Joann Fabric's Casa Collection Glitter Satin in CORNFLOWER.
On sale for 5.99 a yard online right now... I bought it for 9.99 a yard and used... a lot.
Ooo! I see they have a "Stretch Satin" now too that might give the more rubbery skin-tight look that the costume needs! I wish I had time to sew!
Heck you can buy the costume and use it as a template to make more like it -- or for parts.
I don't even have a sewing machine any more. :(
Thanks!
Jess
