What do you think? Bit OTT maybe?
Not really! I'm winding you up!
I bought it for Tallulah! The Actor's eyes will roll when he realises I've actually bought an outfit for my mannequin!
I bought it from Ebay for £20 from a lady selling all her old costumes and showgirl numbers and it arrived this morning. This is my ridiculous buy of the week.
The collar is separate, I like the sequin cuffs too. I think it was originally made from a swimming costume.
The bum's a bit baggy on Tallulah, but then she hasn't really got one
I bought it for a bit of fun. I know I'm bonkers!
It makes a change from Tallulah wearing my clothes all the time. I think it's rather fun on Tallulah but I don't think I'll be wearing it to London Fields Lido anytime soon.
Have a lovely day xxx

That show girl outfit is just classic! Tallulah does Vegas!
Hello:
This is just too fantastic for words! We LOVE it, and Tallulah too. If she ever wants a holiday in Hungary, we'll be right at the airport to whisk her off the plane. Not bonkers at all - just deliciously mad!
Ahahahaha, how glorious! I really hope you've at least tried it on though. Tallulah can't have all the fun!
You should definitely wear it, even if only for a private viewing ;)
I concur with Miss Peelpants - surely you have to at least try it on, Christina? I bet you look amazing in it! I bloody LOVE it!
Sarah xxx
ok...step away from the manaquin...could be time to stage that intervention!!xx
I bet you have already tried it on! It's great Tallulah finally gets her very own outfit, seeing as she won't be able to wear a headdress I think you should get the poor love some tail feathers.

It's spectacular! Christina you made my day, you are so much fun.
Dear All, thank you for your comments.
Haha! Dash, Alex and Sarah - you know me well - Of course I tried it on first!
I also bought a head dress from the same seller for £12 but it doesn't go with this outfit.
I'll have to post about that later xx
It's FABULOUS!!! And I am sure you could carry it off beautifully :)
Can't wait to see the head-dress :) xx
That is great. I wish I had Tallulah's (lack of) bum. You could carry it off, love. Take it on vacation. Surprise the Actor. Laugh.
This will be perfect at a couple of hotels in Las Vegas! It's lovely, C...and the whole bit is hugely funny. xx's
It's great! You should totally wear it- lovely though your Tallulah is, you should snatch it from her and have a twirl in it!
You have to link me to that seller! That has burning man written all over it! WOW x
Dear Christina,
hope you are well.
I've also got a fair few pieces that I'd be hard pushed to find an actual occassion to wear but like you I find it hard to resist buying stuff like this when I come across it...I'm also a total sucker for sequins!
It would be a total riot if you did wear this to the London Fields Lido, people's eyes would be popping out of their sockets cartoon stylee ;)
Take care luv,
Jem
...xXx
Ha, ha, ha, ha perfect I can just see you sashshaying around the liod in this :-) - On another level amazing costume all the same. Xxxx
Hi my dear-I agree with Ms Peelpants, a private showing every now and then wouldn't hurt and I'm sure Tallulah won't mind you borrowing it on occasion ;-) It really is stunning though xxx
Hi again!! I totally missed your last post, best of luck with the soon to be swimming regime, I'm sure it will really keep you fit and toned-how fab the pool is at the bottom of your road! We now only have 1 pool in our borough, my local shut down 3 years ago ;-( xx
I really think you should give that particular little number an outing to the Lido! x
Tallulah is smokin'!
I dare you to wear if for a swim will be fun! Mind you the weight of it might be too much
xx
How funny! Tallulah looks fab! I can see you dressing up it after a few drinks!
I think it is fabulous .. you would look great in it xx
You are such fun! The bum picture made me laugh the most. Will the actor know right from the get go that you aren't serious?
A good day for me is one where I have lots to laugh about! Thanks!
Wow Chistina what a wondeful idea, why not???, ahhhhhhhhhhhh.
Tallula looks fabulous, and that outfit should be admire, ahhhhhhh.
I can lend Tallula part of my extra- bum while digging in your closet.
I wouldn´t dare to even visit your house just in case I broke something. Everything looks far too beautiful.heheheheh.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Hehe, I think that's brilliant! Very glam ;)
I love the fact that Tallulah is now channelling Esther Williams! What a mad yet fabulous buy! xx
Dear All, I'm sure it will get an outing at some point! xx
Dear Emma, I'll look up the link but I think most of it's gone : ( xx
Dear Janfaw, The Actor knows I'm bonkers. I'm glad I made you smile xx
Dear Sacramento, it photographs well but it's actually quite shabby. You come round whenever you like xx
I love the idea of a full-blown glam costume exclusively for a mannequin/mascot.....and at $20, this stunning suit was quite a steal!

Oh, I wish people wore things like this for swimming and the beach! More sequins! More rhinestones! I can't wait to see the headdress. And I love the fact that you bought T. an outfit of her own.
Oh, you're wonderful! Wouldn't be the slightest bit surprised if you do wear it to the pool. In the best possible way x
Tallulah is a lucky, lucky girl. And The Actor is a lucky, lucky man if he can get you into it and then talk you out of it.
Thats just amazing! Tallulah is a very lucky girl.
I'd love to know where you find these outfits on ebay..whenever I look all I find is boring normal stuff.
Totally Hollywood Daaaahlink :)
Ah haha made me laugh that did .... Love you Xxx
Wheeee, it is amazing! Can you please wear it to my launch party? xx
Oh, this makes me feel better about buying stuff for my mannekin. You know that the actor will expect YOU to model it as well.
I want to see you wearing it forget Tallulah. so show girl inspired.
