Please, I need your help. I'm new to this reconstruction thing. I bought these pieces at a shop going out of business. I was thinking that they have great potential for BM costumes. The theme this year is the American Dream. I don't know what to do with them to make them truly beautiful and a bit sexier. I am an artist but not really a seamstress (yet). I'm willing to learn though.

Any ideas on what to do with these? THANK YOU!

You could turn the skirt into a bustle skirt, short in the front and bustly in the back. As for the shirts, I don't know... they are hideous...lol Cut 'em up and show some skin.

Have you tried thinking of creating clothing as a way of sculpting yet? Once I did that.. all kinds of wonderful things started to happen!
