    what are your resources? what are your skills?

    I think a trumpet skirt is always classy- how about a trumpet skirt with long sleeve vest & you can make a crop top & a hip scarf with some nice drapey material- accessorize with necklaces, broaches, chain bracelets etc. pinned on. Works in a pinch! Especially since that doesn't leave you much time to order anything & reliably expect it to get to you in time.

    You're going to need to make it -- even the pre-made vendors like Moondance take at least 2 weeks to ship. What sewing skills do you have, if any?

    Also, I'd post this on the DIY tribe as well (listing what your sewing skill level is) -- those ladies should have LOTS of ideas for you: tribes.tribe.net/diycostumes
