    Also for food check out your home bargains/bms/wilkensons/the range. The will sell little woks/balti dishes/chinese dishes for a fraction of the price they want for the toy ones

    My daughter's a fashion student and made me some multi-cultural outfits, a Chinese style dress and an African outfit. She's considering teeming up with a friend to make others as a way to make herself some money, university life isn't cheap and a part time job seems difficult to come by at the minute. Her friend is studying costume design whilst my daughter fashion in general but more specifically pattern cutting. I wouldn't even know where to start with creating patterns :-/. Anyway she's available but more importantly I just thought I could do some market research here and now for her. What multi- cultural costumes, or others but I know the former are quite pricey when I looked, would people be interested in? And more importantly what price range would people be realistically willing to pay for said costumes?

    Thanks in advance, Sam x

    clothes to dress up dolls would be good, maybe not traditional costume as such, but the everyday clothes people from all walks of life wear.
