    Arrow Where to get a......

    Sequin jacket!!! My friend and I want to wear matching sequin jackets for a night out and don't know where to get them. I know we could get them made but we need them in like 2 days. Where would one get such a thing?

    Or does anyone know how to add sequins to a jacket?

    If anyone knows where to get them in Vegas, all the better!

    What type of jacket? You could glue sequins on if you're desperate. It would take about 24 hours to dry and they may start comming off eventually (sequins are pesky about staying on with anything less than sewing).

    You could do rhinestones or "nailheads" easier though with a hotfix tool.

    I would imagine a costume shop would have them. What style/color are you looking for? Team SW needs more information for effective sleuthing! :

    Well, I found an adorable one on bloomingdales (I googled "sequin blazer" and it came up) but it was $498. I'm pretty sure you don't want one for that much.

    But since you're in Vegas, have you tried looking at dancewear supply stores? I know a lot of ballroom dance costumers provide fully sequined outfits, they should have a jacket.

    Some regular costume shops might have it too.

    I saw that Bloomie's jacket too and LOVE it, but $500 is a bit much, my friend and I just want to wear these matching outfits out clubbing one night.


    We're looking for jackets that are fitted and long enough to barely cover the butt. We want to wear them over booty shorts and fishnets. And hats. Yes we WILL get all the attention when we go out in that


    I've thought about putting sequins on a reg jacket but I dunno where to start with that. I know you can get sequin strips about an inch wide but OMFG that would take forever to apply to a whole jacket. We'd settle for non-sequined jackets if we could just find something in the right style that's shiny!!

    Now I wish I hadn't stuck my sewing machine in storage and had it with me!

    why don't you glue glitter all over jackets in the style you want instead? it'd be a similar look. but i dunno how well it'd stick.....

    YUP YUP!!! Do an online search and most of the places will be costume shops... also, this type of outfit you're decribing... long, etc., is very "magician-like..." perfect for a costume shop. I would also stop by a vintage store.

    Costume shops here in ATL don't have them - they have the kind with tails in mens sizes but that's it. I checked.

    Tomorrow I'm going to find some plain jackets tomorrow and glitz them up.

    Bah! I called them and the earliest they could get it to me is Monday, and I'm flying out on Sun. I don't have a place to ship it to in Vegas. We changed the outfit ideas a bit. We got some fitted black jackets, and she has some full sequined gogo shorts, so we're wearing those with the fishnets. Nothing but a bra under the jackets. And I'm gonna put some matching sequin bands on some hats. I think it's called a Fedora? The gangster hats? Think I'll put a sequin stripe down the jacket collars too. Her shorts are red and mine are turquoise. Can't wait to wear this stuff out in LV!!!

    Find stores where other old ladies buy their clothes. Old chicks look sequins because they are remembering their disco hey-day

    We are not remembering any disco heyday. We just saw some chics in a show wearing similar outfits and both thought it was hot and wanted to wear something similar for a night out.



    And of course we'll be taking pics!! LOL
