    Costuming

    Thursday, February 7, 2008, 12:35 PM [General]

    Most of the sewing I do is for the groups I dance with, so I'm uploading a few pictures from our Boho Dance troup. It's a Summer of Love theme, and we dance to music from the late 60s, Beatles, Rolling Stones, etc. We dance with veils, poi, tambourines and hula hoop.

    The costumes are all hippie-esque. Peggy found us some nice sari fabric with a paisley pattern that we all used for the top, and we all modified the jeans into bell-bottoms. I personally don't remember the 60s, but I don't think an 80s dance group isn't as much fun. Some people would probably beg to differ.

    We tie-died the silk veils using rainbow colors. I think they turned out pretty nicely also.

    The pictures aren't great with the shade and everything, but I'm still looking for the ones we did in Peggy's back yard.
