"Official" 2017 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Boo to You!

[Cluelyss]

Love it! Can you please tell me about the Crocs your son is wearing, did he get blisters from wearing them all night, did he wear no show socks? Thank you!

My kids ALWAYS wear crocs (sometimes with socks in the cooler months, but usually without). Never a problem with blisters. Stinky feet, however, is a whole separate topic!!!!

And I wear Croc flip flops. I don't like the feel of regular crocs, but their flip flops are AMAZING!! They even have Mickey ones! (I found them on Amazon)

those are cute - but only for people with pretty feet. I need to cover up my tootsies to not scare the children. LOL

Those look great!!! But doesn't the thong hurt in between the toes or do you need to break them in?

@sherlockmiles

I'm doing while catching up on the DIS but as soon as I'm done I'll complete my mom's mink stole and ship it out for her tomorrow. I'm adding a new silk lining.

I want to see!

This is what I wore once and NEVER again! I had to purchase due to lack of time.


I made a new pattern for a dress similar to this but added long sleeves (I tend to get cold at MK late Oct.) and plan to remake the accessories as the above fabric was cheap.



I will make the white collar, gloves and make the hood detachable.

 

[ErinsMommy]

Very cool! So I guess that's a no to booty shorts? LOL.

For who? I like the longer length on the dress and will be wearing tights so I don't think I'll need shorts as well. But for your DD or yourself, only you should decide.

Any seamstresses or tailors on here who could help a girl out with designing a skirt for my costume??

I'm making it myself so just looking for some input from folks who maybe have experience creating costumes for past parties on how to construct it!

For you, I'm going as wonder woman. A tutu skirt with a t-shirt and if I can find a cape I'll add that too. DD is going as Jack Skellington on night #1 and night #2 periwinkle

Right, I thought you mentioned DD as Periwinkle. Did her stuff finally ship? How does it look?

My vision is Ariel as a Newsie so I want a skirt made out of green suiting that has a little swing but isn't a full circle skirt... And I'd like to avoid pleats because I struggle with those still. I'm wondering if a half circle skirt would hang well in suiting?

Yes it most certainly will. Suiting is made to drape very smoothly also if you have enough fabric cutting on the bias would work out better. How? It add stretch.

Thank you!!

This is the style of pattern I would choose and cut on the bias
