To make the baby's skin dark, you can use black tights and a turtleneck. To make a skirt, take an ordinary bright-colored plastic bag, cut it so that you get a large rectangle. Try on the hips of the child. If one package is not enough, then take the second. 5-10 centimeters away from the top of the bag, cut it with longitudinal lines, the distance between which should be two centimeters. Sew a button on one edge, and make a cut for it on the other (this will fix the skirt on the child’s body). Using the same principle, make a fringe on your legs and arms. They dress just above the knee and elbow.
