    Default Websites for costumes ?

    What's up everybody


    I have been surfing the internet trying to find some good websites for buying costumes. I've wasted/ spent hours looking and can't seem to find any really good ones. I've come across a few but not many so If anyone out there knows of any super hot sites please let me know. I have an audition and I need to find something really sexy!


    - Thanks Egypt

    http://www.sunsetstrip.nl/shops_01.htm,
    They have the best list of most dancewear sites but the list is quite long. From my personal experience I shop with Flirt, TonysWear Inc, Forplay, krystelskloset, roma, and any and everything in between that has good prices. Flirt and Forplay are overpriced, but they both have sale sections on their websites where u pay a more realistic price for current catalog stuff. Its just like cars the price is jacked up for the first couple weeks then its lowered. When a catalog comes out the stuff is sky high, within a week the stuff is on the website at a discount. Ebay is also very good for buying dancewear. U just have to spend the time looking for it.
    The bottom line is this: retailers don't pay much for this crap. I know I worked as a buyer for an exotic dancewear store. They are trying to make a profit, the key is to find a retailer who is not after maximum profit. Example a two piece halter top and skirt set with rhinestones costs about $20 or $25. Retailers usually sell double so for around $50. A greedy retailer will sell it for about $69 or $79. Smart business moves, but bad for dancers. Invest the time and search around.

    I wish I could find a website with show stage wear - theme show stuff. Not the little french maid things etc but real feature wear. I get all my stuff custom made and it takes forever...and they really soak ya for the bux.

    I search for hours for this stuff...and have yet to find a site that has big show costumes.... :-/

    Never explain yourself to anyone, because the person who likes you doesn't need it and the person that dislikes you won't believe it.

    That's a good point, Leigh- when I talk to all of our feature dancers at the club, their costumes are all custom made and costs thousands sometime. (ouch)

    Have you tried searching under Burlesque costumes & supplies? They might have some stuff.

    www.krystels.com

    They presently have a closeout sale. I placed an order last week, 5 pairs of heels 6" & 7", 3 dresses and 2 sheer tops - $339.00

    I have been shopping with them for over a year. They have a large selection and I usually receive my order within a week.

    TigerLilly - Gosh what am I looking for? ANything different unique, explosive dynamic outstanding off the beaten track!!
    LOL!
    Larger than life theme shows, not the fodder appropriated to run of the mill stage work but stuff you can build a show around.
    Props, well I got most of em - tub, fogger, bubbler, electronic pyro etc etc unless there is something unique, portable and viable for a travelling feature performer.
    You make stuff? Big stuff? cuz I'd definitely be interested!
    I can do just about any kind of show nothing intimidates me - I go from one end of the scale to the other (comedy drama etc) I even do a donald duck show with naughty show tunes that cracks everyone up, so fill me in whatcha got whatcha got???
