Halloween...

I found this on EBay, I'm not sure what it is, might be a bat? Just joking; this is probably a skirt and top which will look perfectly normal if it was show on a model


If you need something for Halloween, this is the thing! It even comes with tiny skull (although I don't know if that's actually part of the costume)

Are you OK? Your eyes hurt a bit now? You just got to be brave, because there is more. The lovely belt got recycled chaps on them and a recycled fishnet:



The bra is a lingerie bra with all the original straps in tact. I wonder if the designer put glue on the bra and threw it in the bin to see what random objects would attach:

Green Unfinished Costume

Maybe the non matching bra back straps are a repair, but they do not match, and the sequins they used for this costume are huge. But I guess someone could use it to make something new out of the fringe. (and if you did not notice yet: there are two golden dots in the middle of each cup)

Costume?

Apparently this is a costume, it's more students' practise gear I think

Bra

Another unfinsihed bra (look at the straps, they are the original lingerie straps) and the straight line does not look too good:



Is it me or does it scream 80's to you too?

Flowers as Targets

Of course these ones surface every now and then...

Maybe This One Can Be Saved?

If the applique at the center of the belt can be removed? I find this picture actually quite funny for the background:

This Could Work

Without the weird embellishments

When a Good Idea Goes Wrong

The fabric they used is really nice, but the belt on this skirt looks quite unfinished, maybe if it's worn by a model it would look different



But the bra is totally unfinished, the original straps have not been replaced and covered with fabric. And the bra just, well, looks like a regular bra and not a costume bra:

Beware

These costumes look cute, but I heard that the belt is not decorated at the back:



The sequins used are really big, and they sell these only in small sizes:


But otherwise I think it's a nice costume, if they could use smaller sequins and decorate the back as well.

What Are These Embellishments Meant to Be?

Birds? Baby brontosauri? Not only are those weird embellishments, the whole thing looks a bit strange:

Good Design Gone Wrong

There are several things I think could have been done better with this one:
-the mesh above the bra will not last long when it has to hold the bra in place
-is it me or do I see a question mark in that mesh?
-the black stripe in front of the skirt isn't nice, just the two in on the sides are enough (I hope there is not one at the back...)
-the cups are two different colors, for some costumes that works, not for this one

Deadly Costume

They probably wanted to go for a native American look, but ended up puting animal body parts on the costume. Hmmm, maybe this should have been a Halloween cossie?

"Glamorous Gypsy Costume"

According to the vendor, "add a bikini top for a non sleazy dance costume."

Belly Dance Undies?

Sold with the tag 'belly dance' as well as 'burlesque'. Looks like this is just a lingerie set adored with a few beads, if belly dance costumes are that easy to make, maybe I should start up a business!

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button?

Remember the movie? Well maybe this was what they made in that button factory...

"Apparently this $95 bra is the "perfect gift" for belly dancers. Just look at that fine craftsmanship. See how the buttons with 4 holes were sewn on only using two? That means quality!" Karnak Klaire

Odd, Very Odd...

I have no idea if this is a belly dance bra, or something else, but I had to share it:

Construction Mistake

Sometimes designers don't think about what a costume will look from a distance. In this case the bra cups look like they are being held by (weird) hands. This construction also gives the illusion that the cups are not on the same level:

Unfinished Business

Looks like the maker of nr 139 was in such a hurry to sell it that he/she didn't even finished it.

Applique?

Eye Test

This looks more like an eye test for the colorblind than a costume. Look at the long bra strap syndrome it's suffering from:

Leafy Costume

So what has gone wrong with this one? There is just so much it takes a moment to get over the shock: first the cups are flat, the flowers or leaves or whatever those are are done rather badly, the connection between the cups might pop, the shoulder straps are placed at a weird spot and there is a wall of fringe (that seems to go all around the body of the dancer)


But wait: there is more to this beauty! It comes with matching belt. It looks like there is only fringe at the left side, don't worry, there is camouflaged fringe on the right...
