bright like neon love (and not the cut copy way)

another costume bites the dust! 

neon love is a burlesque performance i'm doing for VANITY RIOTS & VIRGINIA KILLSTYXX LIVE @ THE VALVE , an awesome glam rock gig on the 24th of feb. it's a stunning fan dance under black lights so the neon and white glow. but before the black light is even installed, the cossie has to be made.

i bought a cute neon and leopard number from kmart ages ago and decided to customize it up...


i stocked up on neon fringe and sequins...


i laid out my design before i even began to sew...



and then i started a-making...



ta da! 
there are even cuff bracelets (that's what's on the shoulders)


And then a wig as the finishing touch...


photos of the event will be up once the event has happened. 
wish me luck!

now all i need to do is find a black light. any thoughts?
