Hi Amulya:

I have the Costume Goddess Mermaid skirt book and I also have the Madame X Fishtail skirt pattern.

Let me see if I can direct you to their websites.

Good luck,

Azeeza

PS I just found the first one below:

It seems there is a much easier way to do it, my mom just sent me a pattern. She made a skirt like that once. If I get it all right I will post the pattern here

Amulya:

Would you mind sending me the pattern if you can? I'm always interested.

And now I know why you love to sew, it's in the genes!!

PS What ever became of "pancake" bra?

It became a costume:

Not the pancake one but another Ugly Bra was used for it: a horribly pointy one, I took it apart and put it back together and now it fits well. I had the belt and skirt ready but it needed a bra (after I had the pointy one I asked for a new one and the tailor made the pancake one, not sure why). The only thing that bugs me a bit is that it looks like I have huge boobs, but that happens for me with belly dance costumes.
