Looking at the costume choices was rather terrifying. They cover almost nothing and this chubby girl from the prudish USA who hasn’t even worn a bikini since I was about 9 was venturing WAY outside my comfort zone. I ordered my costume 8 months ahead and I am not lying to say I looked at the picture multiple times and looked at myself in the mirror and kept realizing while it was beautiful my body didn’t look like hers. I REALLY was scared at the prospect of trying to squeeze into it and be out in public. Then add that I didn’t actually get mine till I got to Trinidad, so it’s not like I could get used to it. Instead I bought a bikini top that I would wear around the house to at least get used to seeing all my skin and ripples.
