Costume Shopping

 COSTUME SHOPPING

Steve

The articles of Steve’s costume can probably be something that Kai already owns. Since he is in debate, he has had to dress up in a suit or some type of formal attire in the past which means he would have the type of costume Steve needs. If this is not the case, there is a chance he can ask one of his friends that resemble his height and size to borrow an old suit for a day. If this is not possible, our last resort is to buy it at Goodwill, since they have a whole section dedicated to suits and formal wear. The only reason we would not want to take this approach first is that we are not certain Goodwill will have exactly what we’re looking for in his size since it is a thrift store.

Dainty

Dainty will require a visit to a children’s store that sells clothing extra-large. This could either be The Children’s Place or Target. Our best bet would probably be Walmart in the end, since their clothing is going to be the cheapest and does sell children’s attire in large sizes that would fit a double zero 18-year-old. Recently, I had to purchase a dress for a play and bought it at Walmart, unaware that I had wandered into the children’s section. It was a bit tight on me but did the job. If all else fails, we will go to Goodwill for this as well or I will ask my 14-year-old sister to lend me some clothes. The only problem with my sister's clothes is that Dainty is supposed to be a very young little girl and my sister’s closet has already exceeded a mature enough level to not pull off as childish.

Maria

Maria’s costume will be the easiest to find, considering our group consists of two Hispanic girls who have plenty of clothing to choose from. If neither of us can find mature enough clothing, my mother would be more than happy to lend something from her closet. Because of this, there is a guarantee we will not need to go shopping for any of Maria’s attire.
