The cloak, gloves and hat are made from Blizzard fleece, the skirt is flannel. Her bodice is velvet and shirt is cotton. I custom embroidered the skirt, bodice, gloves and hat with Nordic designs. The embroidery took about 15 hours total. 

This is the link for the wig my daughter used for her costume

Elsa Costuming... teaching my daughter to do her own costumes

My daughter has decided to start cosplaying. So, I decided to teach her to sew herself. She attended "FanimeCon" here in the Bay Area a couple weeks ago and attended as "Elsa" from Frozen. I actually sewed the dress, cape and base of bodice, but she did all of the embellishments. I think it turned out beautiful.

Here she is surrounded by a group of Deadpools. 

Padme's Gown from the Cut Family Scene in Attack of the Clones

I had a request for the outfit Padme wears when visiting her family when she goes to Tattoine in Star Wars Episode II. The scene was unfortunately cut.

The brooch is fashioned from sculpy clay, painted and buffed with silver Rub n Buff. The head piece is made from Wonderflex and sculpy clay. I hand painted it as well and used silver Rub n Buff.

Endor Poncho for Princess Leia

Here are pictures of my interpretation of the Poncho Princess Leia wore on Endor in Return of the Jedi.

I didn't put the slits in the front because I was unsure of how it was going to sit on the person who commissioned it or how wide the belt would be.

Half Done

So
I have the base down for the Black Escape from Episode I. I still need to screen print the Naboo symbols on the skirt, make the holes bigger in the crochet top and skirt, make the "jacket" and put the beaded strip down the back if the skirt.
