That was exactly my point.

Why do you always have to express it better?

And this reminds me of one of the first times I tried to make a nice finger painting for my parents:

I really don't know what to make of this item. For 350$ it looks like it's made of hip scarves. I won't go so far as to say it comes under the UGBD banner but please read description. This vendor writes she paid 600$ for the outfit. Would it be wrong of me to say three words. she ...was...robbed!?
Because this vendor says she was selling more costumes, I checked and er...yes...hip scarf..none other like it. I am struggling to see the Eye of Horace, she claimed are stamped on the beads. Could that possibly be the Eye of Horus.?
Hip scarf looks pretty standard Turkish fare ( I bought a similar for less than £10 this summer) 65$ originally. Boy!

Oh,my eyes, my eyes! In this case I am tempted to adapt a quotation from Blackadder (old english tv-show):some costume designers seem to have all the artistic talent of a cluster of colourblind hedgehogs... in a bag.

WOWZA!!!!!
I have seen some SCARY COSTUMING (as in one of my student's said of a panel "skirt" that a dancer was "wearing?" that was quite narrow...
........." wow..... I was more concerned as to how she SHAVED that close than about how she was dancing") but this one.... where IS the skirt???? .....however, this could be a cool "tummy" cover, IF the REST was COVERED!!!!

I'm sure QueenIshtar can explain the premise behind this as a belly dance costume.

Possibly Glow-in-the-dark SpongeBob bandaids?
