I started this costume a year or two ago and it is finally done!! yeah for me!! The base is covered with a pretty neutral tapestry type fabric. I then covered it with a beige lacy shirt I never wear and some lace trim. Added kuchi coins, button, crystals, rhinestone chain, pearl chain. Here are some previews, photoshoot coming soon.

So I started a new costume about 2 weeks ago out of the blue. It is going to be lacy with coins, ect. Still trying to decide exactly how I want it. I have the bra all ready to be decorated and I just got all my kuchi stuff in the mail today.

I am almost done with my coin goddess costume. I sewed in all the lining and hooks. I just have to add a couple more coins to the neckstrap..and do the coin draping. I am so proud of myself. I couldn’t wait to take some photos, so here are some previews.

I got so much done today.

-I finished sewing the coins to the other side strap
-repositioned some of the top coins
-finished adding coins on bra
sewed the lining

I have to add the coins to the neck straps and then the hooks. Then I can add the draping.

This is what the underside looked like. thousands of tiny strings from all the hours of painfully attaching each coin individually.
