Time for another round of Shallow Fashion Dithering!
One of the communities on LJ that I belong to just got a special offer from the community mod. Her clothing company is trying to clear out some of their fabric stash, so they're offering custom-fitted underbust corsets for $50. The catch is I would have no idea what it looked like until it turned up in the mail:
You tell us your favorite colors/and or prints and styles (victorian, punk, jrock, frilly, lolita etc etc) and we will go through our fabric and create a special one of a kind corset just for you. The catch? You do not get to decide on the design of your corset or see it till it's done. We will base this on the favorites list you send us, and match what you like with what fabrics/trims we have, don't worry, we know you'll love it, we always aim to please!
This is SO tempting. And I just sold some clothes ...
Jilli, could you E me the name of the community? Please?
Jilli, like it's any question! You need to do that! Hell, I need to do that.
(e-me??)
Be warned, the offer is only open to community members, and it's an
EXTREMELY
over-the-top, gother-than-EVERYONE community that votes on every application.
Thirding the request for info on corset dealio....
edit: Ah, and nebbermind. I know the community in question, and I know I'm not goth enough....
Jilli, go for it. Make it a perky, light pink and lace thing.
Jilli,
of course
you should. Silly.
Jilli, of course you should. Silly.
I just sent off the email. One of the answers I had to include was
Three words that describe your personality".
I listed whimsical, elegant, and witchy.
(I'm hoping for some sort of stripey corset, but I'm sure I'll be amused by whatever I end up with.)
Sounds
fab
ulous.
Meanwhile, here is a longer account of yesterday's Adventures With Pet Care.
