I shot this photo in Philly over the Holidays and I loved how it turned out! I made the cross dress from a Nylon DIY! Its a favorite of mine so I thought I would share!

Total Cost: Just about $50 + 1 hour manual labor.

@thetigress; If you "do it yourself".. it is DO IT YOURSELF. haha.. But it's not like this was very difficult.. it is cute though.

neat project... but i'm kinda questioning how this is true DIY.... i mean, you bought a ready-made dress, and ready made crosses, and then just sewed them on...?
