Costumes for Disney races

I second Iglowrunning! I bought a Belle outfit from her for the Princess Half this year. And I had some custom requests for it and it was perfect!!

I have looked at tutu's on Etsy by race junkie...they are beautiful but worried it would start to annoy me whilst running

Ive got a few ideas, just got to figure them out but should be easy. I cant wait to see some pics of peoples costumes/outfits.

I don't know how to upload a photo on here. I have a Snow White and Cinderella outfit to wear for the 5k/10k and then a Minnie skirt and glittery skirt for the half and full...but how do I upload a photo?

As for the tutu...I wore one for a race one time and it didn't bother me. You can make your own and do it very cheap. Go to youtube and look up making a no sew tutu. You will buy the tulle and don't pay more than a dollar a yard for it. Then either use ribbon or elastic for the waist and if you hate it, you can toss it midway.

Does anyone know where you can buy fabric to sew your own running costumes? I'd like to find someplace with a variety of colors in a stretchy, wicking fabric.

I use Joanne Fabric which I think is a national fabric store and I am sure they sell every kind of fabric...maybe not in all the choices of color you want. You would have to google and see if there is a large fabric store near you...I know nothing about material either. I know I have bought tulle fabric for a buck a yard and made my own no sew tutu...however if you have a sewing talent and the creativity...go for it!

Yes, we have JoAnn's here. I'm looking for actual tech fabric that you would get in ready made running clothes. I want to make something that will be really comfy to run in. JoAnn's doesn't sell stuff like that, although they do have a variety of fabrics. I know people on Etsy sell running outfits made with tech fabrics (as in, wicking, stretchy). Anyone know where to buy it so you can make your own running costume?

I would suggest you go to a sporting good store and purchase some of their sale items. I under armor shirts on sale all the time for less then $20.
