Multicultural dressing up outfits

**Madame Gazelle** · 05-09-2010, 11:27 AM

What outfits do you have and where did you get them from? I only have a chinese dress and some headscarves from a mindees mum. I would love to have lots of outfits but as soon as you stick multicultural into a search engine the prices go right up.

Ohhhh Joshie, what a bargain! What did you get?!

keep a lookout for 'sbs-educational' online when they have their sales - I have had a few bargains from them - have to watch the postage and VAT gets added too. Also GALT.

ebay, charity shops (I also got cinderella, belle and snow white

), car boot sales?

sari's are very easily made by wrapping material and tying round a child- look great and can be used for allsorts!!

I got all mine in the SBS sale but to be honest the children make their own outfits up out of scarves, belts and all the bits I have in my box

If any friends of family go on holiday ask them to get some outfits. We have a spanish outfit, and belly dancer type outfits from Turkey.

sbs, ebay, charity shops and nurserysurplus

Nurserysurplus.co.uk can be a bit hit and miss in what they have available but generally stuff works out to be a fraction of the price of other places

I also have a rack to hang it on I have so much now. In the basket underneath I have loads of bits of material that we can drape, or wrap around, use as a cape etc etc, so doesn't all ahve to be specific, they are so good at making stuff up for themselves

I've got a beautiful sari that I picked up in a charity shop. I've also got chinese outfits that my son picked up in china.

If you know anyone handy with a sewing machine they could run you up something
