Rocky Horror Show"

Hi people, has anyone got any ideas for making Frankenfurters costume. It must be made from scratch- non of the local charity shops have anything suitable. I am not driving miles to try and find something! It is to be worn on Saturday, so time is of the essence! TIA......Amelia

I am reach back into my distant memory for this. You need a black ripped (under the armpits) long sleeve sheer shirt., black panties, black garter belt, ripped fishnets and black pumps. That's the basic costume for audience members, you will also need a red sequin ill-fitting corset, a leather jacket, bathrobe with a Chinese dragon on the back, surgical gown and rubbed gloves. If this is for a cast member, do what you can to get to Saturday, then add on as time allowed.

It depends which scene you want to be from. The easiest for most is a = green medical gown, a string of pearls, pink rubber gloves and black = heels.

If you fancy doing some real dressing up, try a black and sparkly = corset, black knickers, stockings and suspenders and black heels. = tattoos optional :o)

It depends what you fancy making. You can get a corset pattern from the = online pattern generator, but Franks usually laces up the front and fits = badly, so you'll have to do a few modifictaions to the pattern. Maybe = make it into a front lacing waist cincher?

Or you might be able to make a back opening green medical gown from a = pattern you have lying around. Back lacing makes it suitable so you can = flash off your knickers and suspenders ;o)
