and it made me wonder what's the best homemade costume you've seen?

It's a shame he didn't work on the wig more. The rest was pretty good.

WOW. I don't have that kind of patience. I usually just buy my costume from goodwill haha

Drag Queens always out do the rest of us!!!

My friend Mimi Imfurst (drag Queen) was dorothy for the recent defying inequality benefit at the Gershwin. Everything was made by hand include her ruby slippers.

Her slippers look like the ones I made.

Here's me as Ariel, from Little Mermaid...not the best but.

The wig was super heavy and I had *NO* idea it was falling off.:

You're not supposed to have your real hair showing.

PiraguaGuy-
Did you not catch the "My wig was falling off and I had no idea" disclaimer? Or did you just have to be a jerk?

The best part of my friends costume is that Toto is colored hair by hair with a sharpie- Mimi couldn't find the right color. That dog was originally white.
