what is a Gaisha Girl??
I thought it was GEISHA!
Dont take pics of opposite sex unless you have a witness present!
it could be awkward if it goes wrong.
* maybe a site for Costume hire?

try a costume shop ... the geisha costume is pretty complex to assemble, but for your purposes, you could probably get away with a stage version.
