	How great are all the new pics! I love them! Now we know what the dress looks like in detail. My husband just emailed them to me from work and I had to jump on here to see if they had been posted. What do you guys think about that "neck gear?" Does it just lay over the fabric or is it an actual necklace? Looks like a necklace to me.... -----signature----- Proverbs 31 Go Buckeyes! http://www.geocities.com/MrsMayimNaar

	It is just a necklace! Check out the top picture that shows her hair really well - sure enough! Wow! Jeez, the way the dress fabric drapes, and the angle of the necklace, you'd think they were attached! Well, hey, since they're not, that should make the dress construction quite a bit easier. kreleia ^.^ -----signature----- all ur base... i haz dem.

	Obi-Dawn the full length picture is now gone. And I tried to go to the spolier thread and it's gone there too! Could you e-mail it to me if you still have it? There was also some pics of the light blue dress that are not coming up. Could you send those too? B_Lynn20@hotmail.com Thanks! -----signature----- It's them, blast em!

	Ladies, the webmaster for the Padawan's Guide got these pics before they were taken down, and she's uploaded them to her site. I have no affiliation to her site -- it's just one that I use frequently for reference pics! -----signature----- The Ohio Star Wars Collectors Club http://www.oswcc.com New costuming site coming soon!

	Hey any of your girls wanting to do the rainbow outfit! I only have to get some shoes and the choker and silver bands-and it has only taken me 3 hours and cost me 15$! In my opinion this is the simplest and cheapest way to do this dress! Here's how I did it and I will try to scan in a pic when I'm done! #1: The yellow part of the dress I got from ripping out the bottom thin part of my mother's old yellow prom dress-then all you need to do is tuck it into the armbands over the bodice! So if you have old dresses there's a source of fabric (or from second hand stores) #2: When you look at the second hand stores, also look for nightgown material because it will be thin like the dress, and look for pastel shades-NO dyeing necessary! I took a nightgown with straps that was plain light pink and used the cloak type coverup that came with it-also thin and pink-to tie around the waist to add volume and to eliminate it being see-through #3: I already had thin pale blue (instead of purple) material so I tucked it into the back of the dress and into the armbands! #4: Final touch: I bought a light purple scarf (3$ added to 12$ for dress; even with jewelry I don't think the total will be more than $20) and I am wrapping part of it around an old headband then the rest wrapping around my hair in a french braid-if you find all this stuff right away it shouldn't take you longer than a few hours to go from scratch to done! -----signature----- Stephanie-YJN/Halton/Rebel Legion Member Teaching padawans (and a few sith) "I calculated the odds of this succeeding vs. the odds I was doing something incredibly stupid...and...i went ahead anyway" "Homer use the For..."

	I have a question about this dress. On one the pictures you can see the bottom part of her sleave. it looks like there is a 1-2 inch ribbon of the underneath fabric. It seems to follow just the bottom of the sleaves and around the top where it wraps around her arm. Am I just crazy or is that really what it looks like. Also, do any of you think that this "ribbon" look might be any where else on the dress? -----signature----- It's them, blast em!

	I think I see it. It looks like a different kinda of material around the top of the sleves and at the top of the dress aroud the neck line. . It reminds me of the material they used to wrap flees blankets with, kinda satin like. . . Could be just the fabric tho. . . Humm. . .

	here is the picture I am talking about. There is a shimmery fabric around the bottom of her sleaves and around the top of the dress. Amidala_wannabe-After taking a better look, I agree I think it may be satin fabric rather then some type of ribbon. Thanks! -----signature----- It's them, blast em!
