Sailor Cosmos Upgrade, TBCC Panels, and DragonCon

What I Wish I Had Known When I Started Cosplaying
zhlédnutí 135Před měsícem
I started cosplaying in 2014 with my first purchased costume of Sailor Moon. I spent the next two years purchasing costumes from eBay, only to be disappointed in the quality and fit. So I bought a cheap sewing machine and a hot glue gun and began attempting to make my own cosplays. Of course they were mostly hot glued, a rite of passage for all cosplayers, but as the years went on, I learned mo...

Redesigning Scarlett O'Hara's Curtain Dress - Part 2 - Skirt
zhlédnutí 181Před měsícem
I decided to redesign the famous curtain dress from Gone With the Wind into a historically accurate 1860's evening gown. This video details the skirt creation. I used the Truly Victorian 1860's Ballgown Skirt patter and decided to go off script for the bottom ruffle and design. I am still on the fence with incorporating some additional detail to make this as elaborate as the original design, so...

    Well it is live action, so it's already kind of hated. Mainly what irritates me is how they blend together 'asian' to get a weird mix of completely unique cultures to get this 'oriental' vibe.

But just because you are a highly skilled and inspiring cosplayer, please never feel like you HAVE to compete. You've proven your talents a million times over.

    Ever After is my top favorite too with 2015 close behind that too. One of my other favorite Cinderella dresses that never gets talked about is Rodgers and Hamerstein Cinderella from 1965. I love the actors and all the other costumes along with Cinderella. I honestly wish i have ideas how to make her crown in that so i can finally cosplay it. I wish it gets more love. The slipper and the rose is good. Just that, she looks good and when Cinderella is standing next to her they're beautiful together but when she's in the room with all the other dancers her dress is a similar color and shape to everyone else that it just sadly blends in. But the characters and all the music numbers makes it's such a delight to watch.

    The velvet and bows look great but I agree the underskirt isn’t really meshing. Re-pleating in a different way to fake the look you’re after (trying on scrap fabric) might also help a bit. But in the end…this isn’t something you’re getting paid to make, really. If you’re not inspired, if it’s not working, you’re absolutely allowed to drop it. It’s about you doing what you find fun!

    Okay the dress was an awful choice all around for belle and the time period and they could have absolutely recreated the original animated dress as hundreds of cosplayers have done so perfectly well but you cant say emma watson was partially responsible for the failure of the dress because she didn't want to wear a corset. If the dress was properly tailored, the lack of a corset would have been no problem. Of course her reasons for not wanting to wear a corset at time may have been misguided but its on the costume department to work the costumes to fit the actors.

I had a happy meal toy of belle in that dress and i would spend HOURS gazing at that dress and imitating the way Belle moved in it.
