Ok... I've been dancing about 5 years but only recently started performing. I am in a rut... I only have a few tribal decorative bras and everytime i try and get one on Ebay, etc. it is always hit and miss because almost NO ONE makes it for D, DD gals! SO... Do any of you do this yourself, or know someone, who would allow me to commission them to make me a bra? I want it on the tribal fusiony side, dark, a little coinage and kuchi stuff, with maybe a pendant. I have one, possibly two black bras that are 36 DD that I'll send them, so that should eliminate some of the cost, and I am not looking to spend more than about 150 total (since I've supplied the bra) anyone interested or know a good place for me to go, please PM me! Thanks a bunch!

Re: Want a BRA!!!
Sat, May 3, 2008 - 8:32 PMIf you have or can find a bra that is nice enough not to have to cover, decorating it is really easy. I have a velvet one in my photo album that was my first decorated bra and it was a breeze to do. It can be a little tedious, but not difficult. And certainly a lot less expensive! -

Re: Want a BRA!!!
Sun, May 4, 2008 - 7:40 PMI can do it for you. Would be $75-150 depending on how many coins you want & if you want the bra "converted" (stiffening the back & sides, replacing the straps and covering the entire bra in fabric, not just the cups...which I recommend with us more endowed gals...stretch is *not* our friend when we're dancing). Examples of our past work:
tribes.tribe.net/belliphat...d1948f160b (both bras)
tribes.tribe.net/belliphat...ac428689da
people.tribe.net/524bcd6f-...02e7ea0b52 (far left & right bra)
people.tribe.net/524bcd6f-...15bfa4ba1e
people.tribe.net/524bcd6f-...90a7a2f12c
PM me if you want to talk details. -

Re: Want a BRA!!!
Mon, May 5, 2008 - 1:29 PMDear Carlisa,
Have you checked out my website ? (www.angelfire.com/al4/coinbeltsbysusie)
P.S. that's small ay-ell-4 NOT a- fourteen). Also look for my link on gildedserpent.com,
which is easier than typing the URL.
My handmade Tribal bra covers are $85 (some extra elaborate ones go up to $110,
and I have made and sold over 300 bra covers in my 18 years as a coin belt designer
and artist.
The Indigo Girls, Urban Tribal, and virtually every other California tribal troupe are my
repeat customers for coin costuming.
I can also custom design a bra cover for you, at no additional cost.
Please contact me ! Zaghareets, Susie (coinbeltsbysusie@aol.com)

Mon, May 5, 2008 - 4:06 PMCheck out Tribal Rootz at www.mytribalrootz.com.
If you look on my profile, I'm wearing one of her bras (I'm a DD) - and in the photos from Tribal Caravan, most of the "larger" or curvier ladies in our troupe are wearing her items as well. She is very friendly, and her work is consistently beautiful. All her items are custom made to your order, her prices are totally reasonable, and her turn around time is excellent.
