My junior advanced beginner class will be dancing to a mix of Vogue and the Suite from the Devil Wears Prada. I am making it into a shopping theme where by a couple of them will start off as mannequins in a window display.

I am torn between two costumes. Which one would you choose? The pink one, I would mix up (some in pants and the other in shorts).

Thanks.

I like the first one better with the red. For some reason the second one just doesn't fit as well for both songs to me.

Definately the red one.

But if you go with the pink... get the boot spats for the skirt

I love the red one.
I'm a sucker for pillbox hats too :)
For me, the pink doesn't go with either song, and I really dislike that shiny plastic material.

I like the red the best but if you have any girls that are heavier you might want to go with the pink.

I also vote for the red.

I personally don't like the pink one at all, but LOVE the red one.

The leopard print one just happens to be my favorite costume this season. I didn't get to use it so I think you should!!!!

It's from Weismann's. Unfortunately, it doesn't come with the gloves.

The adult size is like $10 more than the child's size. I hate when the companies do that.

Art Stone has a costume that is very similar, but I like the look of this one better.

The red one's cute, but what age group are we talking about here? I think it would look great on little ones, but if they're like 11 or older, I'd go with the pink.

I agree with the red, BUT if you even have just one girl a little over average, please do something else. This shows every lump and bump, and I don't like the pink!

I also vote red. The pink one looks at bit too retro 60s for me, but is cute as well. It just doesnt really screm "shop!", it more screams austin powers!

The red one is super cute and i think it will fit in well with your shopping theme.

I would go with the red costume. The red will look fantastic on stage and it seems to match the music selection well. I love that idea for a piece by the way. I like to see pieces in a show that have a little acting involved in them too. Hope that this helped.

Thanks to all who answered.

The red one it shall be. My husband said the same thing everyone else said (LOL).

I plan to complete this look with black sunglasses and black large shopping bags!!!

The red one caught my eye right off. I love that costume. I was sitting here thinking of what I could use that costume for! :)
