How to make your own Fetish PVC Witch costume

Hello boys and girls!

With Halloween rapidly approaching, you might be stuck for costume ideas. A lot of outfits can be quite expensive, but I’ve got an idea for a great costume that you can make cheaply at home. This outfit would make an ideal present for a tranny in your family, so you might want to make sure that they leave the room before we continue.

Are they gone? Great!

The Modern Witch Has To Be Technologically Savvy

Take a look at this outfit that Becky’s modelling, looks fantastic doesn’t it? You’d expect to pay at least 2 guineas for an outfit that good from a posh PVC shop in Knightsbridge. But would you believe it cost less than 20 pounds? That’s right!

First you need to make your PVC dress. For this I used a standard PVC maid’s uniform, of the kind that everyone has stashed away somewhere! If you’re not sure where there’s one in your house, just ask mummy or daddy!

One you have the PVC maid’s uniform, discard the satin pinny and badly-made lace headband, as it won’t be needed for this costume. You might want to wash off any obvious stains, although these add to the character of the final outfit!

Next, you’ll need to make the underskirt or “petticoats”. For this you will need about 4 metres of gauzy material, which you can get from that shop in town with the faded sewing patterns in the window that’s been going for donkey’s years and seems to keep afloat even though hardly anyone visits apart from little old ladies on market day who go in for bizarrely coloured wool and a natter with the strangely fey elderly gentleman who’s worked there forever.

He’ll also sell you some black ribbon, about 3 metres will do. He’ll also try to show you some pictures of him and his young gentleman friend on holiday in Tuscany, but politely decline and leave the shop swiftly.

You might want to get an assistant (sometimes called a Tranny Wallah) to help you with this part. You need to fold the material twice along it’s whole length, so that you have 4 metres of quadruple-thick gauzy material. Pin the material near the folded edge to keep it in place, and then sew along the whole length about 1 inch away from the folded edge.

Now you can feed the ribbon down along the sewn edge of the material and gather it together. The gathered edge can be adjusted so that it fits neatly around the waist, and then the ribbons tied and cut to length.

Next the hat. Like me you’re probably thinking “there’s bugger all chance of me sourcing a PVC witch’s hat”, but actually I found one in the first costume shop I walked into. Which just goes to show that children today are all going to grow up perverts.

The devil is in the detail

Finally, add a pair of 5-inch heeled shoes that you just know are going to be torture after about 10 minutes, a set of cheap false nails from a joke shop, and a pair of expensive tights that cost extra because some “designer” put extra holes in them, et voila!

Blogger Siobhan Curran  Ha! Brilliant! :D

I didn't realise it was PVC from the photo - I thought you'd used sticky-backed plastic ;-) 
Anonymous Dana Strauss  Looks awesome! Recycling the maid outfit was a great idea. There's no point letting a perfectly good item of clothing collect dust because you don't need it for its "intended" purpose. :) 
Blogger hannaviolane  this i found to be most imformative becky ( ive printed out the instructions and placed in taupe coloured folder for next year) however you did not mention if i should use scissors with rounded ends or proper ones that i can accidentaly stab myself in the wrist with? please advise and like Siobhan i already had lying around some sticky backed plastic ( doesnt everyone) and washing up liquid bottle tops ( tesco value of course) and 3000 cardboard egg boxes, are you telling me that i do not need there either!!! 
Blogger steph_angel  Tranny 'Blue Peter'... It simply has to be done :-) 
Anonymous Anonymous  Hannah - seeing as I am a fully qualified Tranny Wallah (TM me btw) I think that if you promise not to run with them and are very careful you can use proper ones or if you have them pinking scissors. :D 
Blogger hannaviolane  ahh thank you jane yes i thought you were! ok well if not i shall ask a responsible adult to help me or if there is not one handy, my mummy....." shep get down, i said get down shep!" 
Anonymous Anonymous  Really like them patterned tights
