So I just took delivery of a print of Arachnid Studios' Silk suit. And I have a few questions for everyone as a result.

First, does anyone have any recommendations for attaching soles to the suit? I already have the aqua shoes ready to cut down and attach to the feet, just need to know what I should use for doing that.

Second, what does everyone do for carrying stuff like phones, cash etc. while in costume?

There's a product called Shoe Goo which worked really well for my Superman MOS soles (and fixing a pair of work boots too).

I've still not come up with a good solution for your second question, I always go to cons with my wife so she and I try coordinate so one of us is wearing a costume with pockets or a bag.

OK, thanks for the suggestion. And sadly I'm flying solo so don't really have that option. =(

Maybe get a phone case with card slots and/or a spot for cash. That way you only have to carry on thing?

Make a pocket in the crotch area. Can never have too much bulge. Lol

Hi! As far as the soles, I used E6000 glue, it works really good!!

This. For a Silk costume, the web backpack is an easy option for carrying things.

OK, so I went in with E6000. And since I've never really done this before, I made a bit of a mess of it. ^.^;
