Where to get FCBD top

topic posted Wed, July 9, 2008 - 11:45 PM by  offlineDevon
I am watching FCBD's Tribal Fest performance and I would love to get one of, what looks like a shoulderless, short sleeved choli. Where might I find one?

My luck, as soon as I post this, I'll find it. Oh well. Thanks all.

    Yup...found it at flying skirts. But it doesn't look like it will fit me. :( Maybe I should get it and make it fit!

      Why wouldn't it fit you? The cholis fit a wide variety of sizes, I'm sure one would fit you. :-)

        The largest size available for the short sleved, shoulderless is a large and I'm right on the upper edge. I'm trying to lose weight, so I could eventually get into it, but I am looking for something to wear when I am performing next weekend (19th).

          Devon the large is quite large and they do stretch quite a lot.

          I've got the goddess sized in the normal cotton lycra and the large in the drop shouldered one and I have to say the L fits me better.

          I would normally wear a size 18-20 on top and wear a 38 E bra (those sizes are UK sizes).

          Hope this helps.

            Thanks, it does help. I think I will get a L and just grow into it. :) I would love to know if I could get one this weekend or if I should order it online and hope it gets here before next Friday.

              I got mine really swiftly from Gwen and Im in rainy England.

              If you email her she will give you a time and shes very good at shipping quickly.

                I just cut a choli I already had instead of spending the $$ :)

                  Never thought of doing that! D'oh!

                  I have made my own too from the free pattern that is on the web!

                    I'm a 38DD and an XL on top as far as tops go and the easy fit choli in L fits me well. For some reason, the velvet drop shoulder in size L is a wee bit smaller. I noticed only because of the tan lines from the sunburn I got while having the easy fit on....after putting on the velvet drop shoulder now, I can see the size difference....in me, anyway :) And Gwen ships really fast!

                      Diana,
                      your observation about the slight difference in the velvet vs. the cotton lycra is right on.....I have the same situation, and I think it just has to do with the amount of stretch/ease in the fabric...

                      :)
