This one is for all the model stockers out there.

We all know how hard it can be to find affordable costumes. Thrift stores are hit-and-miss, and eBay is often a bust for a lot of reasons.

So where do you go to find affordable costumes of reasonable quality for stock?

P.S. I'm considering compiling a list of affordable costume resources for stockers in the near future and the responses on this thread will likely be used for reference.

Everything in your closet, and your friends closet... and your mothers closet... and her mothers closet.... :eyes: Borrow, promise to return in same condition, and you'll be surprised how many people in your family will loan you items of clothing you didn't even know existed :D

I would have "borrowed" my mothers wedding dress by now but unfortunately I'm not a stick insect like she was at my age :doh:

lol and yes... sheets are made of win! :D

I do too, a lot of times. Most of my fun, fancy clothes are a few sizes too small these days, though. :(

This is very true. I just wish my family members were anywhere near my size. Unfortunately, I'm the pixie of the family, being 4'11" tall with a rather small frame. :no:

They're all average size at about 5'6" with medium builds.

Clothes pegs and pins, do back shots and gather at the front and front shots by gathering at the back, I guess all it takes is a bit of ingenuity :nod: Pins are your friend :bucktooth:

I borrow a lot of odd things from friends. Because, yes, my friends have cloaks and poofy white skirts laying about. :giggle: I do hit up thrift stores too. Oh! And old dresses from proms and stuff.
