Costume Challenge

I've recently posted on Bhuz askign for people's most horrible "airport special" crap they have, or were given, and can't bring themselves to throw away but can't even imaging trying to sell...and have offered to take them (and pay only shipping) to see if I can work some reconstruction magic.

This one is tempting me...only because it has poppies. I think the ribcage strap would chaffe my underarms. The dancer/owner of this one was given it as a present and doesn't have the heart to throw it away.

Am I batshit insane? If it were gold colored I would probably have already paid for shipping.
