A Ok, Any ideas so far?
C No, we haven’t.But we want something special.
A Ooh,I e, you know, more and more consumers want a DO-IT-YOURSELF option to be
really creative. So they might not want a costume always from shops, which may clash with other pe

Fashion is open for customization to help every customer look special in the party. It is to say, we make costumes on request!

clerk said.
