My dear old dancing and modeling friend asked me to whip up a headpiece for one of her students dancing in a competition this weekend!

I was happy to!

This is the info I had to work with...
"The song she is doing is called "Bring on the Men" from Jekyll and Hyde. Her costume is black lace over turquoise. It's a mock turtleneck leotard with half skirt. Kind of a cancan feel to it. I would need it to be on a clip so it's secure. Her light brown hair will be in a side bun, so the headpiece will probably be worn on the side. Also a little bit of depth not to full. One request is the feathers. I know that's your signature thing."

So this is what I created! Hope it brings her a gold!
A fan of turquoise feathers, with a black feather in the center and 3 twisted wired rhinestones. Black beading, recycled from a vintage dress....
