OK... as most of you probably know, if you also have Facebook (since I can update and read that from my phone, and damn near nothing else, which is why I'm HIGHLY behind on LJ and up-to-date on Facebook... and hey, I even post there!), I've volunteered to model for the UofI (and Parkland, but I haven't heard back from them yet) art students.
Well... actually... once I get there... turns out one actually gets PAID for that shit. How cool is THAT?
But, I need a robe to wear between... shifts, I guess. And I have a robe. A soft, warm, cozy pink robe. Which also happens to have current and past (as in, sewn shut by me, who doesn't care what my sewing looks like, since not too many people see me in in) holes, tears, etc..
So I started looking online for plus-size robes, with the idea of something in the satin kimono style. And happened upon a page for cloaks.
Well, HELL. Why didn't *I* think of that???
So, I haven't had a whole lot of luck with my searches, and I know I have a lot of friends here with connections and savvy when it comes to fabulous clothing. I'm looking for velvet and/or satin, 360 hem, less than $100, and available for immediate shipping. Purple or pink preffered, but basically, I'm just looking for people and/or companies that you guys recommend. I might be interested in custom work later, but for now, I need something right away.
Thanks!!!
