Future Costumes

One cannot have too many costumes...

These are my next plans for 2014 and 2015.

Princess Leia
Premier: hopefully May time frame
I found the dress and belt on Etsy that's Rebel Legion approved.  The dress seems simple enough to make, but I just don't have the time anymore to devote to sewing.  The hair is probably the most aggravating part for me.  Everyone thinks my hair is long and thick, but it's because the curls take up more space.  Really it's thin.  So gonna experiment with extensions and such.




Pacific Rim Flight Suit
Premier: Shatterdome Con, Herndon, VA in November.
My friend is going to do fem-Raleigh, and I'll do Mako Mori.  We're using this shot as inspiration.  One of my Marine friends is grabbing me a flight suit.  Got to get the bomber jacket and patches.  Rather inexpensive costume to make, except the bomber jacket will be pricey.  The nice ones always are.

Twilight Sparkle

Con: Bronycon in August.

Going to get the horn and tail probably from YaYan Han's shop at Katsucon.  There are a few shops on Etsy that sell the skirt and top.  

Bilbo Baggins
Cons: ?
Cosplay sky sells a nice version of this costume.  Not sure when/where I'd wear this.  But I want this costume now!  :D
 I'll have to find a nice version of Sting.  May have to get a version I can bring into cons, so a not-live steel version.









Bellatrix LeStrange
Cons: DragonCon?
Cosplay Sky also sells this, but not a very good version.  It's an excuse to buy another corset.  I could probably store buy this costume, just the arm wraps be an interesting little project.  I found her necklace and wand on Etsy for relatively decent prices.

Imperial Royal Guard

I've always been in love with the Imperial Royal Guard costume.  I love the color red.  I met a gentleman at one troop that had this costume and it's just so impressive.  I am a little short, but doesn't really matter in the 501st.  I can always wear lifts to add a little height.  I can probably sew the soft parts of the costume.  I heard one of the biggest problems with this costume is getting a decent mask.  I did find a source, but I'm not financially just ready for this project yet.  

I've always wanted to do a handmaiden costume and get into the Rebel Legion in some sort of way.  But this project is not high priority at all.  Probably it'll be if I have time and money, so it probably won't happen for a good long time.
