the thrill of the hunt

[alonewiththemoon]

Ha, costume lust (temporarily) satisfied!  I just bought the costume under the cut from Sherazade in Maryland (she's the fabuous costume importer in the book Snake Hips).  The measurements all sounded just about right with a little room for adjustment, and I like the design--in this picture it's not so clear, but the bra cups are lotus flowers and the lotus motif is continued throughout.  The skirt is slit on the side that you can't see in the photo.   A while back, Sarab wore these silk and lace blue and green costumes for some of our numbers.  I hated the style of the costume, but I had to admit that the blue and green suited me, so when I saw this costume I pretty much had to jump on it.  And best of all, she accepted my offer for less than the asking price.  Yay!
