Okay ya'll--Obi_Dawn suggested it, and SG said Go for it--So here's the thread for the nightgown seen in the Hyperspace image "Sleepless Knight". This will be a continuation to the conversations we've had about this costume on the Ep3 costumes thread.

To date the only image of this costume is on Hyperspace--so we cannot post a pic of it, but Padawan's Guide has posted several great sketches of the costume (including one by our very talented Obi_dawn) You can see them here.
There are also some great doll versions of this gown there done by some very talented artists.

Both myself, and Benae_Quee have done full size reproductions of the gown so far, and I hope more people will post pics of their creations here.

You can see mine here and Benae's here

The only pic doesn't show the bottom or back of the gown, so hopefully we'll get some more pictures soon to show better detail.

The gown is a soft lilac/blue and appears to be either a lightweight satin, or a sort of charmeuse. Padme is obviously pregnant in the gown. It is pretty simple in it's design, and has three straps and three strands of pearls off the shoulder. Padme also wears a unique silver broach in the center of the gown, and a necklace with the snippet Anakin gave her in Ep1.

I really love this costume, and would be happy to answer any questions anyone has in regards to how I made my version of it.

If anyone has pictures to share (NO Hyperspace) or your own costume or doll costume--Please share. Also please chime in with your thoughts, observations and opinions on this costume and the scene you think it is worn in.

    I was impressed by the young lady that had done the snow-bunny padme outfit from the clone wars cartoon so quickly, this is just as impressive.

    Both of you ladies have done such lovely versions of this gown...
    are either of you actually using it as a nightgown? grin

    (I know the answer's "no" but I just couldn't resist asking.)
