Just when you thought only Padme got missing gowns in AOTC (2 to be precise?), Dormé also got a missing Cloak, probably from the first (& missing) Senate Scene:



And there is also a missing Handmaid, Versé who apparently was still in the ship when Zam blew it up. shock

Whoa! That is a GREAT picture, SP!

(Is it just me, or does Rose Byrne look much older in still shots than she does in motion? I've noticed this bizarre phenomenon a few times...)

In any case -- really interesting pattern on her overvest... and it looks as though the center bodice on it has some interesting piecing, or trim to create the pieced effect ... interesting...

Now that I think about it Rose Byrne does look much older in stills than she does in motion. Good call sg. This costume does look rather interesting. Maybe we'll be lucky and get to see more of it on the DVD happy

I have thought all along that Rose Byrne looked older in general than any other handmaidens we have seen thus far, and older than Padme-in all of the stills I have seen, she looks to be about 30!

StormtrooperPrincess, you got some of us hammering our heads agaist the wall cause that shot had been appearing in a number of magazines/books before AOTC was released although not that clear. tongue Thanks for the head up! happy

The shot shown of Dormé with her hood up is the same one she's wearing when Ani and Amidala reunite, only her hood is down. You can see the hood from behind as she walks up behind Natalie when they greet the Jedi...only, we don't see the hood up! My guess is that the hood was worn up for the deleted Senate appearance scene, then taken down once inside the apartments/less formal settings.
Later, it appears that Dormé has removed the outer hooded part of the robe and is only wearing the dress with the gathers.

:~)

I know this is kinda a strange and slightly old request but Sabè has always been my most favorite handmaiden and I think my favorite out fit that she wears is the Royal Battle garb...I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to make the costume so I could have it for holloween this year.

You can use floral foam cut into the right shapes for the part of the headpice covered with hair, and you can get cheap loose fake hair at Sally beauty supply-you should be able to get all you need for under $15.
Since you will be needing "Amidala" makeup-use Ben Nye cake makeup in ivory-the white is too harsh and will make your eyes look red. Apply it with a damp sea sponge ans smooth it out. Using clown makeup or white regular makeup will not hold up, adn I saw plenty of chalky yucky makeup at CII. I used Ben Nye and it stayed smooth and unstreaky all day. Finish it with Ben Nye loose powder, and when choosing red for your lips and the dots, use a very dark red, not a true bright red for the right effect.
For the fabrics-a lot of them are heavier and out of season right now-so you could find a lot of great deals on the right ones!
Good luck!

Oh, definitely use synthetic leather or the vinyl-y (not really, vinyl, I forget what it's called!) type fabrics...they are thinner, less expensive, and easier to work with.

Another good option on the hair is the fake ponytails they sell at Target.

Thought you all would like to know that the lastest issue of SW Insider has two seperate articles on both Dorme and Corde with some great pics for reference.
