The costume from hell


Here it is, the one that I have agreed to make for Dragon*Con but very reluctantly....Padme's fireside corset gown. Why I get myself into these situations is beyond me!

My other costume ideas for Dragon*Con are Christine from Phantom of the Opera (with my boyfriend going as the Phantom...or maybe Raoul since his hair is longer), River Tam from "Serenity", an Imperial Officer, and probably Visas Marr if my friend is going to be Nihilus so we can do our schtick. Of course these costumes (except Visas) are pending my losing a minimum of 50 lbs by September...so I have to make plans for costumes if I don't lose that weight...but I know I'm going to be pushed to make Padme anyway *le sigh*

FIDM pictures


I was recently in LA and went to the last Fan Day at the FIDM where they're just wrapping up the "Dressing a Galaxy" exhibit. I have a picture of me right now and more pictures will be coming shortly (along with those Dragon*Con pictures)
