Tooth and Claw overalls?

Nov 21, 2012 00:08

I'm thinking of attempting Rose's outfit in Tooth and Claw, but I've honestly no clue how to go about procuring the items! So I was just wondering if any of you had any ideas about the overalls-- like, do they ever go up on EBay or are there any alts you know of? I'd really appreciate any help ( Read more... )

The overalls are a fairly easy find on ebay UK, just look for Topshop dungarees and you should come across them eventually.

There were some that popped up a few weeks back. Just save the search on eBay and it will email you each day the new items that go up. That way you can snag them quick! Make sure it's the UK eBay though! It'll be easier to find. Bonne chance!!

As everyone else already said, the overalls aren't super hard. The shirt is another story! The best way to make your own is to get a mauve TShirt (no v or scoop neck, just a rounded neck). From there go to the fabric store and get printable fabric paper, it will run through your printer. There is a graphic out there but I personally found it too off for my OCD ness. What I have done from some if my friends is take a close up pic of my shirt. A few people have printed that and sewed it on and a few have printed it on normal paper, traced it, scanned it and then printed it. The crown is not perfectly centered but angled and slightly to the left. I took pics of it with measurements on where everything is. If you don't see that post under the tag tooth and claw let me know and I can get you pics. I had one friend sew on the embroidered crown herself and it looked amazing. That just depends on how in depth you want to go.

The boots are EXPENSIVE! The good news is that you can use and brown boot, I would say if at all possible just try to ( ... )

Thanks for all the awesome info! I found your post and the Tooth & Claw and it looks super helpful.

Yeah, I was planning using an alt boots, Frye ones are just so pricey.

I probably wouldn't have guessed that about the tights but hers are quite dark so that seems like a good way to go. Thank you so much!

If you do go with dance tights, try Discountdance.com. They are reasonably prices and of good qualirt, it's where I buy my dance stuff.

As for boots, keep an eye online this weekend. JCPenny has boots on sale for Black Friday, and K-Mart does as well.

I'm not sure what size I would be, especially in UK sizes... but a UK 10 might work for me and I'd be interested in buying. Is there any chance you could get me some numerical measurements (length and such)? Thank you for the offer, regardless!
