Title: Great, but needs "detailing"

Date: Nov 23, 2008

This costume got a lot of great feedback from both adults and kids. The dress and collar were first class, however the headpiece, as others had said before, was really poor. I like my costumes to look "finished" and while this makes a great base, you definitely need to tweak the headpiece to deliver the effect. I'm no sewer by any means, but I actually rolled shoulder pads into tubes, and tacked the horns around them, to give the horns dimension/strength at the base. I added pipe cleaners twisted around the horns to give them more effect and voila - WAY better headpiece!! Without that, the head piece looked strange as it's just cut out thin flat foam which sticks straight out of your head. Added some dramatic makeup (green face, purple and black eyeshadow), red nails and big purple gothic rings. It was the hit of the party! I'm a size 16 and the regular size costume fit me fine and was still flowy.

This costume is great for any size. The headpiece is not what I expected. The foam is not quite strong enough to make a good impression. But students still enjoyed seeing the Disney character.
