Costumes II

Well, I spent most of the weekend costume shopping and watching dress rehearsals and, of course, more shopping. Things are going fairly well and things are working for the most part, just a couple of shirts/tops that keep giving me trouble. And shoes...

I calculated (approximately) last night that for 13 actors/performers (7 ladies + 6 men) I have bought a total of:

27 pairs of shoes (11 for the men/16 for the ladies)
16 pairs of men's shorts
19 pairs of ladies' capris
2 skirts
15 ladies' tank tops
22 miscellaneous ladies' tops
15 men's t-shirts
15 miscellaneous men's shirts (i.e. button-downs, polos, etc)
10 belts
15 plastic shoeboxes
13 make-up boxes
40 regular hangers
28 hangers w/pant clips
6 cans of odor-eater spray for shoes
6 hanging odor "destroyers" for the wardrobe
1 iron
1 portable steamer
1 ironing board
2 collapsable laundry hampers
the makings of 2 emergency sewing kits
and I don't know how many pairs of socks, miscellaneous laundry supplies, and other costume "accessories"

...all purchased in one of 8 major shopping trips (not counting quick runs to Wal-Mart or K-Mart) covering over 400 miles and a little over 40 hours
