All dressed up and ready to head out. From left to right: Las Vegas Sea Monkey, Jacques himself, a furry squid, a feathery jellyfish, and yours truly. I made and/or assembled most of the costumes shown here, and on very short notice, I might add!

The corset is a 19" C&S Constructions overbust in novelty print vinyl, worn here with about 1 1/2" of extra space to allow for drinking and dancing. Skirt, purse and shrug made by me. Shoes and wig embellished by me. Me embellished by cocktails. *

Really, even I am not this curvy! P took this one from some kind of crazy angle. *

Unfortunately, I am not as skilled with matching patterns as C&S, so the skirt is a little off. But it fits like a glove! *

Posing with the squid (hat, skirt and shrug made by me)

As you can see, the corset isn't quite as tight as it looks. Ingenious pattern matching!

My hipspring, however, is pretty curvy no matter what I wear.
