Vanyar Elven Gown

Image
An elven dress worthy of an elf maiden of the Vanyar. The Vanyar, also known as Fair elves, or Light-elves, were the fairest of all elf-kind, hence the name. I made this light silky gown with silver trim to satisfy my inner elf. The bodice is boned and laces in the back, and I'm really happy with how it fits :) don't mind the road signs :)  also dont mind the van, the lighting was good lol

Maiden Dress

I'm back from semester three of nursing school!!  So I started this thing like three years ago and finally finished it during my Christmas break. The hardest part was all the hand-sewn eyelets down the sides but it super satisfying to lace it up. I used my POTC Elizabeth nightgown for the dress underneath and then made the little overdress out of some ivory calico.  The first eyelet I made three years ago I used blue ribbon because I could :) Side lacing details So I actually made the basket a few years ago too! I feel like this is something Cinderella would wear  before she got "fairy-godmothered" and I like it!! Thanks for reading!!

More Bucky Cosplay Pictures

My bestie and I went out to take more pictures of the Bucky cosplay. It was raining a bit, but I think it added to the aesthetic. I'm so happy I was able to finish and photograph this cosplay before going back to school. Speaking of which, I have to say goodbye for the fall - it's back to nursing school for me! I'll be back over winter break with new ideas - so until then, bye bye! for the record, my aesthetic is still pink fluffy unicorns dancing on rainbows ;)

I love Bucky Barnes so I'm doing a Cosplay (part 2)

Image
It's finished!! I made the jacket out of faux leather I got for $14 from Hobby Lobby. The rest is mostly EVA foam I got from Walmart, stuff I had lying around the sewing room, and a whole lot of determination! Here are a few in-progress pics, then some from our first photo shoot (we plan on doing two.) This cosplay was definitely a team effort - my sister made the arm, friends let me borrow combat boots and airsoft guns (the things I thought about trying to make but then thought better of it...), and my bestie and sister were my photographers.  I'm super happy with how this cosplay turned out! The accessories are mostly EVA foam, cardboard, and leather scraps. Here are a few pictures from our first photo shoot! Also, my sister did my assassin makeup :)  Thanks for reading!
