Coolest Greek Homemade Costumes

My daughter’s disco theme was twins. We come up with the idea of Gemini (the star sign) which represents twins. It just so happened that I had some material in the cupboard – white dance time satin and some gold. I had been shopping the week before and I saw this fabric on sale (as a lover of sewing I just had to buy it knowing I would find some use for it eventually).

I made a large rectangle for the bottom and a smaller rectangle for the top. I gathered the top so the girls could show a little bit of cleavage and added elastic in the back to gather the dresses in. For the straps I cut all the gold fabric into 1-inch wide strips, sewed three strips together across the top and did lots and lots of plating.

The girls were really happy with their Greek homemade costumes. Someone has already asked if they can borrow it for a toga party.
