I didn't have a chance to look at it last night, Michaela, but it is very, very cool! ;o) I don't think I've seen a costume of yours yet that doesn't make my jaw just drop! I don't think you're afraid to try anything! I wouldn't worry about discussing the rest of it overly much--wouldn't be the first time we discussed a recent movie's costumes, but then, since I'm not a movie/theatre/costume fiend, that's the part of this list I find the most enlightening and fascinating. --Sue, in snowy/drippy Montana...
