Perfect dress to build up into a costume

Wanted to dress up for my office holiday costume party, thought it would be funny to dress up as a Christmas tree. Lo and behold, Revain had this Christmas candy tree design, just perfect for building off of with tinsel and bulbs. No one had left reviews or uploaded photos of this, so I knew I was getting the right one ๐Ÿ˜‚ There are crisscrossing yellow colored tinsel patterns all over the dress, which I found ugly, but proved to be the perfect guide on where to hot glue on additional fake tinsel. Worked so well- also glued on Christmas bulbs, bows, strands of beads, and held up a star to top it off. I didnโ€™t do anything with the back of the dress since I knew I would have to sit at a desk and work. Adding photos of the process- the one sleeve shows the yellow tinsel I referred to before I glued more tinsel over it. As for the holiday party- I won the costume contest by a landslide- and everyone wanted a picture next to me. Was a lot of fun and helped ring in the holiday spirit. Donโ€™t take yourselves too seriously- have fun and be silly when you get a chance.The dress itself is very comfortable and has some nice stretch. It came with a little sash thing but I didnโ€™t use it. I sized up to the 2x because I didnโ€™t want it to be tight at all- thought it would be more difficult to put on once done and would ruin what I added. Iโ€™m 5โ€™7โ€ and 190 lbs with very large boobs, so if I were to actually buy this and intend on wearing it in normal circumstances, I would size down to probably an xl (I donโ€™t like tight clothing).I love the other design options, so Iโ€™ll more than likely buy it in other colors for special occasions. Sure this one I bought is a bit ugly, but if youโ€™re wanting to use this for a costume, I highly recommend.
