I have a big oktoberfest thing to do so i am looking for a costume? Anyonne have a used one they might want to get rid of.
Oh darn. I thought there was gonna be a little kink involved here ;)
Sorry, Of all my costumes, none are of a German bar maid :o
Awwww, sorry.
I only have a shepherdess outfit. Sorry.
I assume you mean a dirndl?
Yes, I have one which I wear to the Wies´n (Oktoberfest).
When do you need it?
There are loads of them on sale here in Munich at the moment as the Oktoberfest starts next weekend. Burda also do patterns if you are handy with a needle and thread.

Ah, the French Maid outfit, we'd heard about that one :rolleyes: ;) :cool: :pQuote:

Holy crap! Those are the naughtiest dirndls I've seen.Quote:

On the other hand, Prost, Bron! Wish I could hang out on the Wies'n for Oktoberfest sometime.
You don't get out much, do ya'? ;)Quote:

See what you can find at the thrift store, you might get lucky
(you might get lucky wearing that outfit too :D )
Actually, I'm really just used to seeing them authentically in parades/at holidays. For fun, I prefer, er...other costume. ;)Quote:

I could wear a baggy clown outfit and still get lucky with my husband. And this is a good thing he had probalems there for a while. High blood pressure. It doesn't take much any more for me to get lucky.:oQuote:

I wouldn't have the makeup on! Just the clothes. Ok if I was wearing a potatoe sack I would still get lucky! Is that better? Less scary?:DQuote:
