Hi! I’m Lily, I’m working on my first Finest costume. Currently I’m having trouble deciding between sunbow Shipwreck or sunbow Dial-Tone, so I’m building a buy list and sketching out prop builds for both. Can’t wait to send my costume in for approval and officially be part of this amazing community!

Happy to hear! It’s definitely a tough choice. Shipwreck is a bit more recognizable, Dial Tone more unique a choice. Whichever you decide, it will be a fun costume (and then you can do the other)!
