A Conversation for Creating Great Fancy Dress Costumes

Miss Print

When I was a child my family had a yearly ritual of entering me into various fancy dress competitions. The most commonly used costume was Miss Print. It was an extremely simple costume, very cheap and could be made anywhere.

I wore my black leotard as a base. Newspaper was folded into pleats to make a skirt, collar, cuffs and hat. A sash worn over the top declared "Miss Print". The finishing touch was an umbrella covered in newsprint and held as a parasol.

Parents can be cruel.
