Tips

  • Visibility can be limited inside the petal mask; make sure you have a friend to guide you in crowded areas.
  • Stay hydrated, as full-body polyester jumpsuits and latex masks can trap body heat quickly.
  • For photos, pose with your arms outstretched and fingers splayed like claws, tilting your head back to show off the mouth.
