"The Bohemian Jester"
I've had these two vintage bullet bra bustiers for a few years. I've been too afraid to touch them! I've been working on being more fearless in my design process (tough when you have OCD!) I started painting it some what randomly and just followed my intuition on where to go with it. It truly felt like the costume was telling me what to do!
I love that it's a two-piece costume because the bustier is spectacular to pair with other pieces in your costume closet (or regular closet!) The bottoms are a luscious purple that also have so much opportunity.
Since the bustiers are vintage, it might not correlate 100% to modern sizing. The bullet cups require quite a fill so cups can be added for an additional $10 if you need them. (The photos are taken with cups.) If you need cups click on the link below:
