What do I do?!


Question Posted Monday March 5 2007, 8:11 pm

So my school play is soon. We had to buy shirts and pants and stuff for our costumes and someone decorated them. Well, the person who decorated mine apparently sewed something on the color, so it no longer stretches-meaning I can't get it over my head. And when I finally did get it over my head, my locket from my father broke. I was already upset about this. What else.. the stuff on the side scrapes my arms and is quite irritating! And so I asked a few supervisors of the show what I should do, and they said I couldn't do anything about it?!

We aren't allowed to take them home either! My friend had asked but one of the supervisors just ended up yelling at her that it wasn't allowed because they can't trust that anyone will bring it back! No exceptions whatsoever.

Please don't say its fine I will only have to wear it once or anything. I now have scrapes all the way up the side of both my arms, my necklace broke from getting caught in the super tight non stretchy collar (like the collor was so tight when I put it on that the locket went up with it while it was still around my neck and the thing snapped). I'm quite angry by this.

figure out what they did to the sides and collar and send a question to my inbox. there's a quick and dumb solution for every stupid costume mistake the average joe makes and I've made most of them myself. generally, with a collar like that I'll cut a it and cut down the shoulder and attach a panel of fabric and buttonholes. you could probably jimmy that with some safety pins. Generally, any mistake can be fixed with safety pins in amateur theater.

Does your school have a sewing class room, or a costume design room? Maybe they'd let you or a friend take it there to have it fixed a bit.
