I need the tail to stand up and be quite sterdy. It is made from a coat hanger and covered in fabric. how would you attach it to a costume, maybe to a belt?How would you go about connecting a wire curly tail to a costume?
';The Janith'; is correct... I used to work with the Warner Brother's Costume Characters.
If this is a non-professional costume (guessing from the coat-hanger), the BEST way is to make the tail SEPARATE: cut a slit in the back of the costume and feed the tail thru it.
The tail should be attached to a belt worn under the costume, made of fabric or leather. There should be a fairly big attachment point... 9';x9'; attached to the belt, padded to protect your tush. I've seen some where the wire from the tail is curved into a 6'; circle, then sewn to leather... OR screwed with wire-clamps to 1/4'; thick plywood. THIS provides a VERY stable and secure TAIL (kids and others LOVE to play with the tail). This also allows you to replace a tail with little effort.
JUST FYI... the tail ALWAYS moves BEST if it's actually attached at a point about 2-3 '; BELOW the tush... it REALLY wiggles %26amp; sways that way.How would you go about connecting a wire curly tail to a costume?
Make a slit in the costume for the tail to go through, and then attach the tail to a harness or a belt that you'd wear under the costume. Email me for details if you need them.
