London, ON Costumes

I thought it might be cool to have a thread where we can talk about our progress on the costumes I know some of us are working on.

My mom and I went downtown yesterday picked up some fabric for Padme's light blue Tatooine outfit. It's a crepe microfibre which is easy to work with, but soft enough to get the drape we want. We got 8 yds of 60' at $5/yrd. Probably more than we need, but better safe than sorry, right? Oh, and Justin, since I'm sure you're wondering, it's white with a greyish-blue tinge, so the colour's right.

 

I'm wondering if i should get a costume... what would you guys suggest for me?

 

haha Deb

Hmm...Matt...what costumes do you like?

Do you like the Jedi? The troopers? The Fetts? Luke? etc

If there was one character in the Star Wars universe you could be...would would it be?

 

okay, so I'm cheating and having my costumes made for me...

My padme pastel lake dress is in progess. I can't wait for it!

 

Matt, what about an ewok, or jabba the hutt?
Paul

 

Yeah Matt!! Do Jabba

And Nyla, I'm doing the same Cheating that is

 

LOL! now where would i find a jabba?

and do you folks really think me that slimy and ugly?

*stalks out*

 

No no Matt! You're not Slimy!

 

Cool Nyla!
The key for me is to pick simple ones that we can actually do! The pastel lake dress isn't one of those!
Maybe I'm just odd, but I feel like I have a deeper relationship with the costume because I've gone through the whole process. (I meaning my mom and I) Though I'm probably the only one that talks to her fabric

 

I'd like one made for me just cause I don't know how to sew.
Leli, I want that desert costume!!! Make me one too!
