Stars of Al-ashtara!

I had fun! I got to wear a costume that gave me a method of displaying intimacy! I was fully veiled out in public, but would only fold it back when around someone I knew well or trusted.

Here's my Zaina costume, minus head veil:







It's my all-curtain, all-the-time costume (seriously, the skirt had two layers of train and pooled awesomely), complete with stick-on rhinestones. I got to do other people's makeup. And be jangly. It was v. fun, and my costume doubles well as a Scheherazade costume, who is one of my favorite people ever.

I might have some in-progress shots of the costume, if anyone would be interested in seeing how to make this stuff.

Gorgeous picture! Thank you for the make up help. Also, this probably comes as no surprise, but I'd be interested in in-progress shots and tips on how to make costumes. ^_^;;
