Halloween
Costume help!!--Moulin Rouge Dancer--any sewing gals out there?
BellhopPrincess asks: Yes, I know it's
early August. Things are still in the planning stages, but
I'm going to make my own Moulin Rouge/can-can dancer costume.
I was inspired by the film but I don't want to rip anything
off blatantly because that's unoriginal. My question is to
my sewing gals out there...I'm trying to figure out how to
do the skirt more authentically than the costumes I'm seeing
that are premade.
