Originally, I was going to a Steampunk Halloween Party, but it was cancelled due to illness. I still had a neighbourhood party, so I decided to forgo the gears/goggles/brass and go with a ’Day of the Dead’ costume.
I had thrifted the bright pink and black corset ages ago. I found a black lace top and wrap to complete the look. Unfortunately, the lace top was lined and very visible through the corset. It fit snugly, so I carefully opened up the seams to remove the lining, but it still was visible under the corset. I ended up just sewing the sleeves and shoulders to the corset, with a piece down the back to cover the gap, then added a flounce and trim to the neckline and used the lace back for fingerless gloves.
Way to pivot. All that amazing work and the party was canceled?! Yikes! I am glad you found another venue for your beautiful costume. @Bunny1kenobi Did you see this?
I must say amazing work and specially the skeleton cup wins my heart
