    For Halloween, I want to be Chrstine Daae from "Phantom of the Opera"-the play, not the movie. And I wanted to wear the dressing gown that she wears in the song"Phantom Of The Opera" But I have absolutely no idea on how to make the dressing gown, or even where to start. I wanted to make it look like this:



    Any ideas or imput? It seems fairly simple, but I could be way wrong.

    You could get a fairly simple, normal kimono/light white dressing gown, and then attach lace to the edges, and cut off the sleeves to make them shorter, and add lace/detail to that.

    as for the detail on the actual gown, im not sure, but you could try to get one with a detail like that already on it ?


    You know how quickly the boys found you.
    All those tedious sticky fumblings in the back seats of cars
    while you could only dream of getting out. Getting anywhere.

    you could probably have a look on ebay and see if you can find something similar. Like this maybe?

    Otherwise, I'd probably look at patterns and find something that you can adjust.

    Ha. On my budget? No way. I can't even afford to have my mom make it, I'm so poor. I'll probably make it out of potatoe sacks.

    I was actually in a little store yesterday and they had all these dressing gowns that looked very similar to that. And i thought of you.
    I think you should check out second hand clothing stores. Endo's usually have things like that in stock
