I need to make or buy 30 cheap Cleopatra costumes. Any Ideas?
I am a very stressed out costume director for a high school musical that needs about 30 Egyptian-like dresses for high school students. And I need to do it fairly cheaply. Any ideas? I’ve got some parents who can sew…but that’s about all I have.
admin answers:
Bedsheets and parents! — at least the patternmaking and sewing is simple.
Can you get the art students to make you some jewelry out of clay?
Sharon asks…
I need to find a video where a girl is wearing an Egyptian costume but the video is futuristic (sci fi) help?
I’m in a theater class- history of fashion and costume. My teacher has been talking about Egyptian clothing from the New Kingdom, Middle Kingdom, and Old Kingdom. And now she has us doing an assignment where we have to find a movie, tv show, or music video where an actress is wearing an Egyptian style outfit. Catch: It has to be set in the future- a sci fi film AND it can’t be Star Wars. Any ideas?

I googled the heck out of this for you and found this movie. Immortal (Ad Vitam)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0314063/
Otherwise I suggest either Fifth Element or Stargate

I’m going on a ‘birthday bus’ next weekend, and I need to dress up as something beginning with Z, O or E. Hopefully something that doesn’t make me look too rediculous, and requires minimum money and effort! :P

Need egyptian dress ideas?
Where can I find a dress that is similar to an egyptian dress? I’m trying to put an egyptian outfit together, but the whole costume sets are either made of really cheap fabric or they look stupid, or simply cause they cost like 50 dollars.
I need to get this in one day, and I don’t sew. Suggestions??
admin answers:
Straight basic “t-shirt” type dress, or tube of fabric wrapped around you several times under the armpits and pinned.
Heavy jewelry.

Lisa asks…
2 different costumes for competition..ideas for eye makeup?
two different outfits and really no time to change makeup so I need a makeup idea that will work for both outfits…
first outfit is a blue sparkly top (black jazz pants)
I reaaaaally wanted to get the blue sparkly eyeshadow for them to wear (i am dance coordinator)
problem is the other dance they dress like an egyptian..they wear a purple dress with a colorful egyptian colar (blue doesnt go)
for the egyptian I really wanted them to either have a black liner on their eyes egyptian style and glitter on the eyelids or use the glitter to make an egyptian eyes… problem is blue doesnt go with the outfit at all especially since the dress is all purple even if the collar had a little blue in it it still wouldnt look right…so what should i do and i dont want to have them change makeup…
would white sparkly glitter

Hi Ellie,
Well from what you have told me i would suggest a nice fading color, what i mean by that is i would suggest you use a grayish/white color( if you have light skin and light colored eyes; and blackish/gray/white (if you have darker colored eyes and skin tone) what ull need is the colors and what u do is you apply the white(sparkly) all over your eye lid even to your brow bone, then you apply the darker color to your eyelid right below the crease then using your finger lightly blend the black or grey into the white leaving alot of white on your brow bone. Then after that get a black kohl (or grey; depending) eyeliner pencil( rimmel is my favorite) LOL, then you line a line right above your eyelid getting as close to it as you can then using a q-tip smudge the color it will give you a smoky effect. After that line inside your eyes with the pencil then get some mascara out and put on a few layers of that and ur good to go.
I think this would work for both because white and black go with everything, plus it will bring out the color in your eyes. And you will have the cleopatra look with the eyeliner but it will be more sublte and if you need help look up eye makeup on youtube
Good Luck with the play :)
