The bra will fit a B or a C cup (a D cup if you are not large framed, but will show lots
of cleavage).  The hip belt is 37-3/4 inches long but fits smaller and larger hips, too
(and puffs out in back to accommodate your rear). (*see sizing note at the bottom of
page).  The under bust measurement is 34 inches. That is NOT your bra size.  
Please read About the UNDER BUST below:
About the UNDER-BUST measurement:  The under-bust measurement is the measurement of the back straps and under the bra cups. Do not confuse
it
with your bra size!  For example, I wear either a 34 or 36 bra, but my under-bust measurement for costume purposes is 29 inches.  So don't think that
because a costume's under-bust is smaller than your bra size that it doesn't fit.  This costume's back strap
OVERLAPS  on me even though I'm a "36" bra
size.  There is lots of overlap and you just move the bra hook to adjust the back bra strap.  Occasionally, only if you are extremely large framed, you might
have to add a bra extender from your fabric store.  Measure underneath your breasts and around to get your under-bust measurement.  You'll see that its
smaller than your "bra" size.

**Note About Sizing:
I choose costumes carefully and focus on adaptability.  I look for bra cups that aren't limited to one exact size and will usually fit a wide range
of cup sizes.  I also look for a flattering cup design that will enhance your shape.  

Belt Length:  Take your hip measurement where you will actually "wear" the hip belt.  This is usually somewhere between your waist and
the fullest part of your hips.  Therefore a 35" belt can actually accommodate much larger "hips" because it is worn closer to the waistline
instead of exactly at the largest part of your hips.  Before thinking a belt is too small, check and see where you will actually wear the belt.  
For example, my hip measurement is 39 inches, but I wear my belt at 34-35 inches.

All belts can be made smaller just by overlapping.  Extra hooks are included with every costume.

Straps are usually easy to adjust and I choose lengthy straps as opposed to short ones.  Adding to a strap is more difficult so I look for longer
ones because its easy to shorten a strap.  You can also make it a halter.  
Do not make any alterations until you decide to keep the costume--you will not be refunded once you have made alterations.
Returns policy:  You will be able to tell immediately if the costume will fit, therefore, to receive your refund you must
return the costume within 14 days.  You do not have to return it priority mail, but the postmark on your return package
must show that it was sent back 14 days from the date that it was shipped to you.  Return postage is non-refundable.

AMIRA !
Amira means princess in Arabic, a perfect name for
this elaborately designed costume.  It is the same
basic design as Jasmina, only Amira is done in black.


Black sequins and seed beads form the background
base for both bra and belt and on top of that is ultra
high quality craftsmanship forming the detail using
a beautiful combination of many different kinds of
beads, rhinestones and gemstones.  

Notice the scalloped edging and especially the silver
detail work all along the edging of both bra and belt.
 Even the bra straps are unique and the ornate
workmanship continues all the way around the bra
top back straps.  The fringe is superbly designed
and has a very oriental and exotic look to it.  

Amira comes complete with a 38 inch skirt (it is not
attached, so it can be worn lower on the hips if you
are tall, or higher if you are short).

the fringe is--with pointy silver
