Finally convinced my girlfriend to come see what this 'Fest thing I'm excited for is all about. Problem is, she doesn't have any garb and doesn't think she'll have time to sew any in time for fest (she plans to eventually make something for herself though).
With the "Garb Police" that are apparently being set up I don't want her to get heckled just because it's the first event she's ever seen. I don't suppose any of you ladies have garb for a "small for tops, size 2 or 4 for pants/waist" that you could let her borrow just for fest?
I would be forever in your debt and would pay for the rental in booze, hugs, or my sincere gratitude. Or all of the above.

Not even with a little bit of modification, modifying has to be easier and faster than sewing a whole thing from scratch.

I'm still not 100% sure I'm going to fest, but if I do, she could probably borrow some of mine. I'm about that size and I have loads of garb. She just has to promise me to take good care of it.

Basically repeating Tress's post. Sounds like we should be similar size. I don't have much for cold weather garb though. Long sleeves and layering always work though. May have a tunic I could sell her too.
Otherwise, keep checking Goodwill and any other Thrift Stores in your area. That's where I started and they change stuff weekly or even daily. Lady at a local Goodwill told me they put out 100s of new stuff weekly. Also, garage sale season is now and returning too. Nothing wrong with basics. If people heckle, just say that it's her first event. If they still heckle, well then they're just big meanies.
Meat, hit me up on FB since I've been forgetting to check this lately.

With the "Garb Police" that are apparently being set up I don't want her to get heckled just because it's the first event she's ever seen. If this happens I'll have a serious talk with those who are responsible. But I am generally under the impression this is for just on field stuff. And I'll have a brief word with those who are part of the garb police to make sure they are reasonable for those who are attending their first event.

I appreciate the assurance of giving them a stern talking to Brooder, but I assure you I'd be first to that party lol. After looking back at the facebook though I think you're right about the policing being for on the field. Antoinette - I'll see her tonight so I'll use this "measuring" excuse to grab her chest. I'll get back to you on the measurements ASAP. LADIES OF HYDRA, you are all the best. THE. BEST.

My friend Lauren is pretty cool about letting girls borrow garb. I'm not sure if she is going. What days will you be there?

Meat, you might be a "monster" but i like to think of you as a gentlemen as well...measuring is measuring not grouping but anywho Does she like pink? Haha, that's true. If it wasn't my girlfriend I wouldn't have even said it. Funniest part was that she was a bit disappointed I didn't try when we actually measured. Guess I'm too much of a gentleman! ;D Her favorite color is green as it goes with her red hair, but she likes pink too and beggars shant be choosers. Thank you so much Antoinette. I will make this up to you. Her measurements were: 26 waist 32 around bust 33 hips I'll be there from thursday with Chi and she'll be coming down Friday night and leaving with me sunday morning. Again, everyone is the best. Except Peanut, screw that guy.
