Gandalf The Grey Inspired Costume

Greetings,

Here is a costume I recently created inspired by Gandalf the Grey from The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. His scarf and color palette was inspired by what he wore in The Hobbit.

Original costume below...

Here is my version of the costume...

My customer was looking for a linen version of Gandalf's costume. Because it would be easier to care for and work well in hotter weather. The linen I found had an amazing homespun texture to it.

Costume includes full linen robe, cape, wool scarf, braided belt and wool hat. 

The belt detail below can been seen next to the woven wool scarf on the left.

The robe underneath the full cape is accented with feather stiching at lacing at the neckline. Pleats and a slit in the front and back allow for movement. 

The wool hat was carefully constructed and hand sewn with a soft wool fabric.

Sleeves and hem are accented with more details as seen below... 

Thank you for looking at my costumes. Interested in your own Wizard Garments? Contact me for details.

Have a magical day!

Princess Leia Ceremony Dress

Greetings,

Princess Leia wears this dress at the end of Star Wars: A New Hope during the ceremony scene. You can see the orginal dress here below...

For this dress I wanted it to be very similar to the original and keeping a bit of that authentic 1970's vibe to the over all fabrics. However, I selected fabrics that were higher quality than the 70's version..but still gave it a pretty drape to the dress.

 

For the main part of the dress I used a poly blend fabric that had a heavier hand to it that would flow over curves nicely. The dress is fully linend in a pretty matte satin.

The sleeves are a gorgeous sheer white color that drapes and hangs elegantly to the floor.

 

The bodice of the dress is a draped shaped to accent the bust and create a lovely low neckline.

 

I used a vegan leather in a silver color for the belt. Accented with metal details and chain closure in the back. I really liked how this looks from the back as well. Seemed to be very "Leia" to me.

 Thank you for looking at my costumes.

Belle's Battle Outfit

Greetings,

For this costume my customer was in need of an outfit inspired by Belle's battle garb worn in the tv show Once Upon A Time.

The original costume looks like this...

The inspired by version is below.

My customer is using her own leather gloves and leggings. (not pictured here)

The undershirt has a fairytale hood and features a low neckline with full sleeves.

I used a very pretty and soft organic hemp fabric for the undershirt because I wanted it to feel magical. This fabric is also perfect for tucking into leggings.

The bodice was created from a very high quality deep wine colored suede fabric edged with dark brown linen and tapestry accents. Lacing up the front allows a custom fit.

I fully lined the bodice with a soft brown linen as well to give it a pretty feel and texture.

The fairytale sleeves are my favorite part of the costume! It gives the whole look a very "Belle" feel. The belt was created from silk, suede, trim and rows of all metal button accents.

Thank you for looking at this Belle Inspired Costume.

Silk Velvet Elvish Cape

Greetings,

This dark blue silk velvet was turned into an elvish cape for a customer who was looking for something fit for a dark elf princess.

For the closures I used silver plated buttons with an elegant filigree scroll work on the center front of the metal. Has a bit of an elvish feel.

I designed the hood to be long and pointy.

Perfect for framing the face and creating an air of mystery.

The lining was a steal blue silk taffeta with a bit of a silver undertone.

Silk velvet has to be my all time favorite fabric. It just drapes and hangs beautifully and truly feels like a fabric with a magical quality. The pictures do not do this cape justice.
