Greetings,
Well my loyal readers....I totally spaced Movie Costume Monday. ah! (which some of you caught me at and even sent e-mails about....so thank you) However, I am making up for it today.
As I am sure you all know....Avengers is out on Thursday! Er....at midnight, so technically Friday the 4th. But if you are crazy like us and enjoy the midnight shows then Thursday is the day.
I personally really like superhero movies. Just fun entertainment...not to mention cool costumes and crazy action. Who doesn't want to be a superhero?
The costumes look amazing in this movie. Very classic and well done. The head of the costume department for Avengers was Alexandra Byrne. (Thor, Phantom of the Opera...etc...)
She did a great job of blending all the looks. Even though the Superhero's already had their pre-established costumes from previous movies. The color pallet for the fabrics and metal/plastics are a bit darker. I like that.

Oh!! The new Batman Trailer came out today... see it here
I can not wait to see it!! Batman is kind of my favorite.

On a side note...these shirts just arrived in my mail box, oh yeah.
Super fun for summer. Batgirl, X-men and Star Wars...what's not to like?
It was REALLY hard to pick only 3, but I decided to not go too crazy.
The fit is perfect. The shirt style is very good for the female form and the fabric is super soft. Buy them here. This site has lots of styles for women. So that is a huge deal! Usually the styles for us female fans are just kind of...meh.

What is going on in the Studio?
Well I am trying to finish editing costume pictures today and have those on the website.
Busy finishing up Costume Orders, etsy things and.....working on a Snow White Costume! ah. So lots to do. I am hoping to get a few sneak peak Snow White costume pics up soon on facebook.
Who is your favorite superhero?
(I have at least 4 favorites...with Batman at the top...)
Thanks for reading!

Pssh, I'd buy all of them! A geek girl can never have too many geeky shirts. (Besides, you need something to wear while you're sewing!) I wish I had an Avengers costume to wear to the premiere, but let's face it I don't exactly look like Black Widow and alas I have no Thor to hang on my arm. :P

@Briana Lamb,
I know!! If I could I would have bought them all. Let's just say it 'twas a matter of personal finances. ;) And I agree. A geek girl can never have too many geeky shirts. haha, makes life much more fun. Yes, they are perfect for wearing while sewing.
Me too! I so wish I had something Avengers-ish to wear. but Alas I do not. I have a leather catwoman mask that I would wear, but I think the movie is in 3-D so that might not work out so well.
hahaha, well I don't have a Thor either, t'would complete the costume indeed.

I am so looking forward to Thursday (I've got tickets to a 3D midnight showing. Can't wait!). From the previews, I'd have to say Loki's costumes are my favorites.
I like the X-Men shirt. Very cool. I made a black shirt with Thor on the front of it. Iron-on transfers are just about as talented as I can be when it comes to sewing or making clothes...
At the moment, my favorite superhero would be Thor. Ironman and Captain America are on the list too. And Wolverine and Professor X are pretty cool. :)

Yay!!! Movie Costume Tuesday!! :D
Ooooo!!!! I want those Star Wars and Batman shirts!!!
Favorite Super Hero: Batman. I don't know if Green Hornet counts, or he'd be on the top. He's more of the Secret Agent type. (And only the one from the old TV show, NOT the new movie - me no likes the new movie.)
Have a wonderful day, Brielle!!! I will be getting the pictures to you soon :) I was in Texas all last week, so that is why I have been delayed.

AH! Thor is SO definitely my favourite! He's so awesome, and he has the most noble story. Ever. It's epicness itself. It normally would annoy a teenage girl, but I liked it when he gave up the girl he loved to save his enemies. What could be more noble than that? And besides that, he is VERY cool. :D I just drew him, and found his likeness most deficult to capture. That's enough to raise anyone in my level of esteem.

Nice post! I've been reading this blog for a while, but I don't think I've actually commented before now. But I love the Avengers so much I had to comment. =P
I actually think Loki's costume would be fun to sew someday... I don't know why, I just do.
Aaaand, to answer the question, Thor, Iron Man, and Batman are my favorite superheroes.

Never commented before but I've read your blog and have spent many hours of my life staring amazed at your beautiful costumes! :D (That started when I had a blog over on HSB) :) I just saw the Avengers and thought I'd comment and say my favorite superhero characters.... :D
My all-time-favorite is Peter Parker/Spider-man. *sigh* he's such a sweet guy! :D Excited for the new one coming out! ;)
My second favorite is actually a tie with my first favorite. They're very different but I love them both the same. I just discovered him yesterday..... Hawkeye! *gasp* He's got some serious skill with that bow of his! :D
Adieu,
Anna
