We are going to be sharing three ways to improve and completely change your dance costume using a simple broach. These are great ways to add a broach or a simple hair clip using it like a broach and adding it to a dance top or skirt.
The first way is just a quick, little fix to bring a little bling to your top and you are ready to go.
Another way you can use it is when adding pieces of fabric to a skirt. You can use the broach to clasp the strips of fabric onto the skirt giving it a unique look. It is great for lyrical dancing giving it a little extra movement and play.
