Amen, sister! I've gotten a new Mirena put in every 4.5 years since 2007 - best hormone regulation in the world. And insurance covers it.
Me! Me! How can I get me some of that magical leg sparkle?
I vote no on this for competition. I’ve practiced in something like this, but would not do it for a comp. as much as I hate wearing fishnets, they do give your legs a nice finished look. These just make me think I am hiding my old sagging skin and not fooling anybody.
I don't hate fishnets, but I can't find any full-body ones that come all the way up under the breasts, are low-backed, and include clear plastic shoulder straps. I hate muffin top more than just about anything else, so I just keep looking for different ways around that problem.
I always cut the tops of my fishnets off. I think I read this doesn’t work for you, unfortunately. I guess I’m lucky that I’ve never had a problem doing this and it totally avoids the muffin top and bare back problem.
So, I tried this. The larger size fishnets in Tall were an improvement, but I still had to snip the back of the waistband, because the dress is backless & comes down very low. This made the waistband too loose to stay up by itself under my bust in the front...but it still works with the safety pins. This time I pinned the fishnets to the bra band itself, rather than the inside lining of the dress, which worked better.
I think my biggest concern would be what if the safety pins will become undone during dance and how do you go to the bathroom? Granted going to the bathroom in full costume during comp is always a challenge at least for me
I tried them on 2 occasions - for a showcase and the competition - unfortunately, they don't work for me. It seems like a wonderful idea, but overtime that connection piece digs in between my toes and causes a tremendous amount of pain.
This is an excellent point. The handful of events I’ve attended in full comp attire were all shorter than 3 hours. The only full-day event I did had a lunch break in the middle, so I was able to change from smooth costume to rhythm costume (and visit the bathroom) over the break. Now that you pointed it out, I realize that it’s never been necessary for me to use the bathroom while fully costumed. But yeah, suddenly those safety pins everywhere feel like less of a good idea!I think my biggest concern would be what if the safety pins will become undone during dance and how do you go to the bathroom?

Could you tack the fishnets into the bodysuit of your dress? Just some stitches where you're considering safety pins, which you could snip out again after the comp. It would still require undressing completely to use the bathroom, but without as much danger of bloody scratches in the process.
