This is a fairly easy project I used it to make my Poison Ivy steampunk costume more leafy. I got the plastic leaves of Ebay for about a £1 for three strips.

I didn't go all the way down with the leaves on the bra because the bottom half was covered by the corset. The leaves arrived in 3 strips all I did was cut off the leaves and then sown them onto the bra making sure that there was no visible gaps.
as you can see from this photo it doesn't have to be too neat as all the thread is on the back. If you wanted it to be a little neater you could stitch some fabric onto the back to cover it up. You need to be careful not to pull the thread to tight because it might pull through the leaves all together (this happened to me once or twice grrr).
This is the finished project, as I said earlier you don't see the bottom half of the bra. I wore mine with an under bust corset which I used metallic acrylic and just painted straight onto the corset for a nice affect
