<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #38761d;">(Or at least have your costume admired.)<br /><br />So, that being said, I had a big challenge to bring our elves to life for this film -- both male and female. <br />I don’t want them to look ‘manly’ (I want them to have an elvish feeling), and have freedom of movement so as not to hinder fight scenes. I also have to keep in mind these are both warrior elves, so nothing encumbering or frilly. I defiantly want the costumes to reflect their gender, male and female, but to be similar enough you can look at them and go, “Oh, those are elves, and they are from the same elven kingdom, and that’s a girl and that’s the cute guy.”<br /><br />My final challenge laid on myself is the fact I’m a huge Tolkien fan, (like I can quote passages from the Hobbit and the Silmarillion kind of huge) and I really want these costumes to be worthy of Tolkien-esk elves.<br /><br />So with that all in mind, here’s your concept drawings.</span></div>

<span style="color: #38761d;">Now, back to my wardrobe blog.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="font-size: large;">Starting with Earrame:</span><br /><br />As you can see from the photos above, she has a tunic and a jerkin over that.<br />The tunic is a soft pink of naturally rushed fabric. It adds a little detail to her costume. It has petal wrap sleeves.<br />The jerkin is split in the front and sides, laced up the sides and fastened in the front. It has tiny cap sleeves and a stand up, hand embroidered collar.<br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Bregolas:</span><br />Has a tunic, jerkin and sash.<br />The tunic is a soft blue knit with a light weave pattern to it. Love sleeves, pointed in both front and back.<br />The jerkin is split on both sides and has a stand up collar. The petal wrap sleeves are duo colored and both they and the chest piece are hand embroidered. It is also pointed in the front and back. It is a combination of moss green microsuede and pine green faux suede.<br />The sash is a simple wrap of dark forest green crepe backed satin.</span><br />

<span style="color: #38761d;">Bregolas’s tunic is a pretty straight shot. Earrame’s is a little more complicated with the collar and sleeves.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Earrame’s over tunic shots.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #38761d;">Her tunic started out in about ten pieces. Ten very very thin pieces. It was based off the pattern I made and used for my Chase Dress (see that blog).</span></div>

<span style="color: #38761d;"><br />So this is the tunic all sewn together, pre lacing, pre fastening, everything. Just sewn together. It kinda looks like seaweed.</span></div>

In a while....<br />
<br />
I am currently costuming the cast of an independent film based on the Lord of the Rings/Hobbit.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There will be elves, men, hobbits, wizards, ogres, vampires (yes, vampires are Tolkien based!) and more!!<br />
<br />
Pictures and everything will be up just as soon as I get something done!! <br />
(So STAY TUNED!!!)<br />

<span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">What you see here is a two layer skirt with separate bodice and giant bustle, and a huge collar. The bows were to be a light pink, and the underskirt and front panel of the bodice to be a darker blue, self piped. <br />Obviously turned out a little different.<br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b>FABRIC</b></span><br />As mentioned, the entire dress was created around six yards of fabric</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">that eventually became a bustle and over skirt.<br />This is a eclectic blue (my FAVE color) cassa collection fabric. It has the swirls already sewn on it.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">Which are very blurry in this picture, but at least you get the idea!!<br /><br />The blue of the collar, front panel of the bodice, and under skirt is a color no longer sold.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">Simplicity 3637 is already an French baroque styled gown. I only used the bodice.<br />The collar came from another simplify pattern based off of Mirror Mirror costumes.<br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b>SEW HERE WE GO</b></span><br />From the get go, this gown was a challenge. I’d put it at 3 out of 5 stars. Nothing as bad as Huntress’s cape or my next scheme, but difficult none the less.<br /><br /><b>Bodice</b><br />About 80% of the bodice is hand sewn. It is boned, front and back, and I wear my corset under it. It is fully lined and has two sets of interfacing. It has a square neck and closes in the front with twelve (12) large hook and eyes. Hand sewn. Yeah.<br />The sleeves are four pieces, and self lined.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="color: #3d85c6;"><br />Adjustments made: the back of the pattern was made for a cape that attached at the back of the shoulders and made up the back, then falls down the skirt. I changed that, obviously. <br /><br />Side note: I’ve never done boning before and everyone said it was scary….but to be frank, I found it quite placid.<br /><br /><b>Underskirt</b><br />Consists of fourteen (14) yards of fabric. I love it. <br />About six (6) yards go around the hoop, and the rest is around the bottom as ruffles. It sits at my hips and is gathered on both sides.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: purple;"><br />But I’m not here to give you a rundown on her bio - if you’re looking for that, Google it. Trust me - it works.<br />Ish.<br /><br />There’s a fair amount of variations of Huntress and her clothing floating around, and I, being the research nut that I am, had to dig them all up.<br />So I will run you through the basic version, or at least include the basic accouterments all versions seem to carry.</span></div>

<span style="color: purple;"><br />In the case of a hole, the white stripe usually does not continue and the shorts are left completely black.<br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Belt</span>.<br />Is in most variants royal purple. Occasionally a soft pink or black.<br />Consists of two belts, the larger one wrapping around the body just below the hips (think low rise jeans), and containing the pockets/pouches.

<span style="color: purple;"><br />Accents vary from version to version, but commonly is seen the top band around the biceps. Sometimes padded, sometimes a pouch is also included. Other bands or pouches are also included - typically from one to three others. Padded or unpadded. Elbow pads in the corresponding color is also seen commonly.<br />Occasionally a stripe on the back of the palm is seen.<br />Most variants have full gloves, I have seen a few with half gloves.<br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Leggings</span><br />Are usually seen in the older variants, but are a nice option if it’s colder. <br />Surprisingly I have only seen those done in black.</span></div>

<span style="color: purple;"><br />Usually have a heel, anywhere from a half inch to full spike heels, but the boots are a combat style, regardless of how high the heel gets.<br />I would say the sole is rubber.<br />Once again, accents depend on the variation, but commonly the top of the boots has a band around the thigh, sometimes padded, usually with a pouch or two included.<br />Accents vary from steam punked buckles down the calf and boot to two stripes across the calf to nothing.<br />I have seen many variations where the boots and leggings are combined, the boots being shorter, around half height, and the leggings reaching up to the upper calf.</span></div>

<span style="color: purple;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Cowl/mask</span><br />Depends on the variation once again. Typically royal purple or black. I have seen pink.<br />Shape also depends on the variant, but general shape is two batman-esk points reaching up over the forehead, with two smaller points (similar to some of the variants on Robin’s mask) reaching down along the chin/jaw line. Occasionally the bottom points turn up around the chin.<br />Often a third point is found just below the eyes, resting on the check bones.<br />Sometimes made to be attached to the cape.</span></div>

<span style="color: purple;">The back side is higher then the front for obvious reasons.<br /><br /><b><span style="font-size: large;">Middle</span></b><br />The middle section was next.

<span style="color: purple;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Belt</span><br />Is my favorite part.<br />Is made of two strips of martial, both slight curved, the bottom one about twice as wide as the top. They are both stitched, turned and top stitched. The second belt is sewn into the first in front of my hips at an angle so it fits around the small of my back. It also emphasizes my natural curves there, which I like, for once.</span><br />

<span style="color: purple;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Gloves</span><br />I made my Robin gloves last year and loved them. I wanted to make a few improvements to them, however, and got to with these ones.<br />They are full length, and have elastic in the band at the top. There are three bands of purple on them - one medium one at the elbow and two smaller ones at the wrist. They were difficult to match up and do not stretch.</span><br />

<span style="color: blue;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span>My original concept art was yellow. It involved three layers of dresses and skirts, bodice and corset. And a pretty elaborate headpiece.<br />The headpiece will have a separate blog.<br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">ACTUAL DRESS</span></span><br />

<span style="color: blue;">Clearly got cut down a little bit. While I did purchase fabric for a bodice and corset, I got lazy and also realized that a corset is slightly beyond my grasp at the moment…and just bought one. <br />(I’d still like to try and make one someday… :P lol)<br />The dress was turned blue due to the fact the court of BlackRock was required to wear shades blue this year.</span><br />

<span style="color: blue;">For the FABRIC of the underdress, I got about four yards of crepe backed satin in a teal/turquoise blue.<br />The Skirt of the dress was two yards (I recommend three!!) of a very light weight fabric, (the name escapes me atm), which is mostly sheer with a touch of color to it.<br />The overdress is 6 yards of a Silk/taffeta like martial in robin‘s egg blue. I found it on the clearance rack…and I’m not sure what kind of fabric it is. It’s got he feel and rustle of silk.<br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">PATERNS</span><br />Once again, I used rather a few of them…<br />For the underdress I used Buttrick B4827.…</span><br />

<span style="color: blue;">I altered the neckline and shoulders.<br />For the skirt I used the skirt from the same pattern, with no alterations.<br /><br />For the overdress I used McCall’s pattern M4491<br />And put the sleeves from M4490 (#4) on it. </span><br />

<span style="color: blue;">I deviously did quite a bit of alternation on the overdress. I’ll get to that later in the blog.<br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">‘CREATING’</span><br />Now then, let’s start with the underdress. I cut it straight from the pattern, then scooped the neck line more to my liking. </span><br />

<span style="color: blue;">It zips up the back.<br /><br />The nightmare of the dress (not counting the headpiece, of course!) was the skirt….The fabric is slippery and slightly stretchy, which made it fun to pin and sew. I also managed to make the skirt out of two yards of fabric, which I don’t recommend highly! And, silly me, I somehow forgot to leave a space for my zipper (<span style="font-size: x-small;">o.O</span>)<br />I ended up putting the zipper in the side, which works fine, but I was so paranoid I as going to forget to put it in that I had my little brother remind me the zipper went in the side every time I sat down at the sewing machine. He was super thrilled about that. <br /><br />Out little Kitty, Kit, decided to help me out with the whole pattern thing too…</span><br />

<span style="color: blue;">It’s got a bit of shine to it, and you can clearly see my pants through it.<br /><br />The overdress was fascinating.<br />The sleeves were <span style="font-size: large;">ENORMOUS</span>…I think they took a yard and a half…each.

<span style="color: blue;">The front has a long diamond shape to it, and the sides are rounded down to the back. It has a little bit of a train. I seared around the edges and roll hemmed the whole thing. I might put some wire or interfacing it in at some point, but it stays pretty flat unless it the wind catches it.<br /><br />And the corset is from LacedLadies for those wondering. They are online.<br /><br />So here’s me as Andromeda….Check out the headpiece blog and I am on</span><br />

<h3>
<span style="color: #93c47d;">By Leaves of Lorain</span></h3>
<span style="color: #93c47d;"><br />I know an amazing woman (whom I will call Bree) and I love her like an aunt. She has been wonderful to me and to many of the people I hold dear. She is a mother, a nurse, a friend, an amazing girlfriend to her man, and a queen.<br />And she makes amazing costumes. <br />I’m lucky to be working beside her this summer.<br /><br />It also means I have to work especially hard to make some pretty spectacular gowns to set her off even better,<br />It’s suiting, really. Bree gave me the fabric for this gown.<br /></span><br />
<h4>
<span style="color: #93c47d;">Design</span></h4>
<span style="color: #93c47d;">I was mainly thinking medieval when I drew up the deign for this gown.<br />The original called for a sweetheart neckline, fur lined sleeves and collar, gold piping on the front, hat and veil and of course a more medieval over look.<br />What I ended up with is a renaissance gown (hoop included) with a square neckline. I don’t mind a bit.</span><br />

<span style="color: #93c47d;">Bree gave me the six yards of butterfly fabric for this gown. It’s definitely tapestry material. It’s like sewing butter- absolutely amazing and easy to work with.<br />(If all fabric was like this, I would have waaaayyy too many gowns!!)<br /> </span><br />

<span style="color: #93c47d;">I added four yards of matching gold satin and a yard and half of brown fur.</span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdKnAZIEvEZvy6PlWn5vYpcPtYpL14VSUSLRmUSPsPjaRay-ttHLZyvhtLvJoN0t69o5zDfLvQ5BrzaDF7SJE3I26dE6lh8W-qQufdyFnLc3Lhj6FG8wyO_fCOSPfzYl7_cXwhQdk6GMM/s1600/IMG_7039.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="223" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdKnAZIEvEZvy6PlWn5vYpcPtYpL14VSUSLRmUSPsPjaRay-ttHLZyvhtLvJoN0t69o5zDfLvQ5BrzaDF7SJE3I26dE6lh8W-qQufdyFnLc3Lhj6FG8wyO_fCOSPfzYl7_cXwhQdk6GMM/s400/IMG_7039.JPG" width="400" /></a><br /><span style="color: #93c47d;">Which has far more of a grain to it on camera….it blends much much nicer in person.<br /><br />And here I am, thinking ‘Seems pretty simple this time around, right?’<br />Ha…</span><br /><h4>
<span style="color: #93c47d;">Pattern</span></h4>
<span style="color: #93c47d;">I have over four drawers (yeah, drawers) full of patterns. And yet none of them ever seem to be just right for what I want to make.<br />I went through quite the debate over the pattern for this dress. I had decided to make it large enough to wear over a hoop, so I had to add that into my factoring.<br />Eventually, I ended up with four patterns<br /><br />For the bodice and central panel of the dress I used McCalls pattern M6376.<br />For the skirt I used McCalls M6097</span></div>

YAE!!! I FINALLY GOT TO MAKE MY CHASE GOWN!!!!</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
(can you hear me screaming?!)</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I’m really only mildly excited….</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
YAE!!!!! YAE!!! YAE!!!</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
Back when I first decided to do a Lord of the Rings replica gown, I knew I wanted to do one of Arwen’s. I just didn’t know which one. I spent quite a while looking over her different gowns before I finally picked the one I wanted to make the most -- her chase gown.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
Unfortunately, the more I researched this gown, the more I realized that for someone who’s only costuming project up to that time had been Legolas ….</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I was not ready to do the Chase gown.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I forget where I read it, but somewhere someone referenced the costume depart of LOTR saying Arwen’s chase gown was the most difficult of all her dresses to make. Every panel of the dress is a different thickness of suede, and not only that, but the grain was going in a different direction on every panel!!</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
(supposedly it’s because they wanted this dress to make her seem as elvishy as possible when we first meet her by providing a very different look. She is the first elf we meet in the films, after all, so it make sense cinematically)</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
It’s also dove gray suede, which is very expensive. So for the time being the chase gown was out. (very sad face)</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I did Arwen’s Battle Dress instead…which was (in my humble option) not much of a step down!!</div>

One is gray and looks blue, and is worn in the Fellowship of the Ring for the Flight to the Fords sequence with Frodo and the Ringwraiths on the horses. She is chased in this dress. She does not battle in it.</div>

The other is wine, burgundy, pink and gold and was used in the alternate storyline in The Two Towers (which was filmed then cut) where Arwen went to Helm’s Deep with Haldir and fought there. She actually battled in this dress. </div>

<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I think the confusion comes in when people are unaware of the cut sequences from all three films. </div>

<b>BREAKDOWN TIME!!</b></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The chase dress has multiple parts, like any of Arwen’s dresses; the coat/overdress, the skirt/underdress, the gloves, the belt/buckle, the boots, the breeches, and the sword….which technically is not part of the dress.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
Hadhafang aside, I’ll tackle this one part at a time.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The coat/overgown</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
(I will call it the coat) Is many different pieces.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The more I look at this dress, the more crazy it seems - Honestly! But here goes:</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The ‘bodice’ and ‘skirt’ of the coat are separate. There is a seem at the waist where they join. </div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The skirt is NOT one piece, split in front and back, but actually FOUR pieces, over lapping at the waist (think like flower petals) The front two panels line up with the bodice at the center front. They wrap around Arwen’s sides and overlap the back two panels. The back panels meet at the center back.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The front panels are rounded upward in the front.</div>

I’ve lightened the picture, and you can CLEARLY see the split between her back panel and front panel on her right side here. You can also just barely see the back panel on the left side meeting and slightly overlapping the right rear panel.</div>

You’ll note the front right panel overlaps the back right panel, and they stay at the same length.</div>

The collar makes this dress even more fantastically crazy!!</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
It is NOT a separate piece of fabric - it is part of the front panels, sewn together at the base of the neck in the rear and sewn down the shoulder seems.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">

Here you can see where the seem starts at the rear of the collar (where it is sewn into the back of the bodice) as well as the shoulder seem</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
And…of course there’s that lovely bit of lacey stuff on the tabs of the collar. I have no clue what that is. I would hazard a guess that it could be some string that may have been formed then sewn in, or some very unique fabric. It’s sewn like facing as it clearly goes down along the center split.</div>

The sleeves are actually FOUR pieces… PER SLEEVE.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
A ‘shoulder roll’ (its almost a tiny cap sleeve), a top part and a bottom part…and an inner sleeve</div>

In both pictures above, you can see the tiny little ‘cap’ sleeves just above Arwen’s shoulder. They’re very small, very subtle. Almost lost in most of the pictures from the set, unless you know what you‘re looking for.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
They are separate pieces, sewn in at the top of the arm hole. They DO NOT go all the way down the arm holes.</div>

This is the best reference I could find to the embroidery on Arwen’s sleeves. This would be the RIGHT side. The little ‘wing’ bit there faces the front of the dress.</div>

<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">

You can see from this picture that the gloves come over the elbow and lace up.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The picture below, (less then flattering to Liv, but a great shot of her gloves) shows a bit of the lacing down the inner side of the glove.</div>

<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
Arwen’s ‘belt’ is a bit of ribbon, about three inches wide. It is a few shades darker then the coat.</div>

<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
In the pictures above you get a nice idea of what the ribbon looks like. It is threaded through loops sewn into the princess seems between the front panels and the side front panels. Three on each side, spaced about an inch and a half to two inches (or as the wearer’s figure calls for) apart. They start under the bust.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The belt must be unthreaded each time the dress is taken on or off.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
It falls to just above the knee. The lacing starts under the bust but not tight under the bust like a corset. It ends at the natural waist.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
All the pictures of the dress on display have the ribbon crossing right side on top of the left.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
There may well be six foot of ribbon there.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The knot and buckle fall over the “v” in the bodice.</div>

Isn’t the buckle glorious though? It looks reminiscent to some of Arwen’s other crests/patterns.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I can’t really tell you much about this one, regretfully. There are simply not enough pictures of it.</div>

So Arwen’s boots. Are rounded toe, laced up the BACK. No heel. They are fitted. Made of suede.</div>

These I LOVE. They are a replica pair made by a fan - a friend sent me this pic, so I sadly do not know who made them or I would credit them. And give them a bit of business.</div>

Most people credit them as maroon. I disagree, but cannot contest this with any photo evidence: only logic.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
Arwen has a pair of maroon breeches. Yes. She wears them with her maroon battle dress.</div>

In both photos above you see Liv in her chase dress wearing her maroon breeches….HOWEVER…I will contend very strongly that that background LOOKS LIKE HELM’S DEEP!!! That’s the Deeping Wall, with the stairs that Legolas ‘sleds’ down, and the puddle where Gimli almost drowns. </div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I think this is just practice for the battle at Helm’s Deep.</div>

<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
And here we have her in a pair of deep blue/dark grey breeches. These do however, seem more of a likely color.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
Lastly, look at the teeny tiny bit of breeches you can see there above the right boot in the statue. It’s the same color as the coat.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I think that they never made a pair of breeches to go with the Chase Gown. They really didn’t need to. You never see Arwen’s legs. So Liv and Jane just wore whatever they had on hand. Thus the maroon breeches from the Battle Gown. </div>

So the following pictures are currently of my mock up dress, or my fake dress as my brother likes to call it. (He also likes to point out that it is Hulk and Loki green)</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
As soon as I get my real dress done (hopefully sometime in the next few months) I will get the pictures of that added to this blog. (STAY TUNED!!)</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">

<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
MATERIAL</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
For the pictures you are seeing now, I used a two shades of green cotton (‘Hulk’ or Kelly green, and ’Loki’ or Forest green) and muslin for the inner sleeves. </div>

<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
For my final dress I am going to be using a sky blue suede cloth, dark blue satin for lining, deep blue silk or linen for the underskirt, and something very sheer for the inner sleeves…haven’t decided what yet.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
WHY not a grey?? Because I’m a strawberry head (Both red and blonde) and I look better in green and blue then grey. (Plus I couldn’t find a satisfactory grey in suede cloth)</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">

SEWING</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I used a combination of several patterns and a great amount of add lib.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
For the bodice of the dress I used Simplicity 3782, an Elizabethan court dress. The B pattern has a bodice that has roughly the right shape and a PREFECT collar. The problem is it calls for a corset.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I combined the bodice front from that pattern and the side panel of a dress from Simplicity 9891 to make a new pattern for my chase dress…which has the correct princess seems.</div>

The bodice came together fairly simply once I had my pattern perfected (I did mock up a bodice before making my ‘fake’ dress to make sure I had it right)</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
One discovery I made was that the next bodice will be cut larger to fit over my hips, because the skirt takes up a lot more space then I anticipated.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The collar was actually fairly easy, once I knew what I was doing. It turned out lovely, in my opinion. I did add a layer of very stiff interfacing.<br />

The hardest part of the bodice was getting my belt loops in the princess seems. I basted the bodice together, undid the seems below my bust and sewed in my loops. Given that I’m about a foot shorter then Liv Tyler, the loops are closer together then on her dress….it’s important to size everything to your own body, after all.</div>

I took the little cap sleeve from 2172, traced it and shrunk it to about half the original size…and it was still too large it turns out.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I sewed the cap sleeve into the top of the arm hole. It looks pretty cool.</div>

As you can see, they practically blend into the rest of the dress. So I feel I brought justice to the little cap sleeve! (In that they match Arwen’s almost perfectly)</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The upper sleeve posed a bit of a problem to me, in that it’s a bit tight when raising my arm over my head. Not a problem unless you plan on wearing the dress and being active in it. Which I do…</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I’m looking at possibly adding a gusset to my next dress.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The lower sleeve is self lined, which gives it the nice square look that Arwen’s sleeves have.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I basted the upper sleeve in, then cut the slant at the bottom, took it out and cut my lower sleeves to match…</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">

<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
NOTE!! -- cut the sleeve from the top like this -- cutting it other ways will end disastrously!!! (as can bee seen by that UGLY and unseemly seem straight across my sleeve just below the cut. That’s called ‘the store is out of your fabric so you make scraps work’ :p) (Since when has a fabric store been out of COTTON?!)</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The cut does make it slightly difficult to sew the two pieces together, but it does work!</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
Once the lower sleeve was attached, I sewed up the arm and sewed the entire sleeve into the arm hole on the bodice.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The inner sleeve got cut down a bit, roll hemmed, and then sewn into the seem where the upper and lower sleeves meet (By flipping the lower sleeve back over the upper one)</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">

<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
And thus began my greatest frustration with the dress…the skirt.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I cut the skirt panels about a foot wide, and three foot long. (Based on my height!!) (About three and a half for the underskirt…I did cut everything down before sewing it into the dress) From there I rounded the front corners of the front panels and sewed them. All four panels of the upper skirt are self lined. Again, this gives them the nice square look that the original dress has.</div>

(That’s my face you can just barely see on the right…the sleeve is on my arm, so it give you a vague idea of how long these things are)</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
The two front panels went in first, then the right back one, then the left back. This created the overlapping look in the skirt panels.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
Unfortunately for me, my sides were uneven at my first try, so I had to rip them all out and re-measure, re-cut, and re-sew. </div>

<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I apparently cut he right rear panel with a curve at the bottom, so it does not match the left side in the rear. One more mistake not to be repeated on the next dress!!</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
Once I was happy with the over skirt, I moved on to the underskirt, which was (thankfully!) much easier.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I cut four panels, rounded the front two, and sewed the two sides together. Then I roll hemmed the two skirt pieces and sewed them into the waist.</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I bought three and a half yards of green, 3” ribbon for the belt and used about 2 and a half yards of it. </div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">
I have yet to find myself a buckle, but that will be an adventure for another day!! :D</div>
<div style="color: #45818e; text-align: center;">

So Here I am, in all my green glory!</div>

<span style="color: red;">This year, my debate on what costume to do started about three months later then normal - in the middle of February.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">Maybe I obsess too much??</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<span style="color: red;">Na</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<span style="color: red;">I went through a couple different options before sitting down one day as saying to my self, “Self, you should do Robin for Halloween.” </span><br />
<span style="color: red;">That was about mid-May, and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since!!</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<span style="color: red;">I’m really happy with my choice this year, and for the first time ever, super excited!!</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<b><span style="color: red;">HOLY RESREACHING ROBIN, BATMAN!</span></b><br />
<span style="color: red;">I had in mind to do a straight up replica of Robin’s garb.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">so</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I started with a lot of research.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I’m a fan of Robin. I have a preference to Batman over Superman any day, but Robin’s my guy. I’d rather be the sidekick who can say the one liners, do the childish things and enjoy life. </span><br />
<span style="color: red;">So anyway, my research wasn’t on the various Robins, but Robin’s costume. Of which I found waaaaaayyyy too many variations!!!</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<span style="color: red;">Not only does every comic book Robin have a different look, but all the film Robins have different looks, as do many of the fan pictures, costumes, and cosplayers!</span><br />

<span style="color: red;">After thinking about it for a while, I decided that rather then trying to pull of a guy look, I was going to design my own Robin costume and make it decidedly female.</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<b><span style="color: red;">CONSEPT</span></b><br />
<span style="color: red;">I had a couple different things in mind when designing this costume.</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<span style="color: red;">1) I want to look female/sexy with out being overly exposed in a skin tight mini skirt and low cut bodice (like most of the female variations I came across in my research) which ties in with reason # 2 --</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<span style="color: red;">2) I want this to be a functional costume that could conceivably be worn as an actual super hero outfit. In other words, I want to look sexy and still be able to kick your butt.</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<span style="color: red;">3) I want this costume to be something that will stand up in the line of Robin costumes. Upholding the Robin tradition of comics and films.</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<span style="color: red;">So this is what I came up with.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFarYP4jkvfxwY4TxbrjgCvimvFBgcNJF_cTeAy8SPQ2qAK387S4hQj0k-esstOv3mcFBAd42bR8F2BuX6ou-SSKyfKED_B6BFSbhO1Bu97bfCShudhWodRPuWblp8yNVkgt78XUgic00/s1600/IMG_6309.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFarYP4jkvfxwY4TxbrjgCvimvFBgcNJF_cTeAy8SPQ2qAK387S4hQj0k-esstOv3mcFBAd42bR8F2BuX6ou-SSKyfKED_B6BFSbhO1Bu97bfCShudhWodRPuWblp8yNVkgt78XUgic00/s640/IMG_6309.JPG" width="358" /></a><br />
<span style="color: red;">What do you think?</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">The proportions are a little off because I was in flurry of creativity. He he.</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<b><span style="color: red;">COLORS, COLORS, COLORS AND FABRIC</span></b><br />
<span style="color: red;">Colors are the key to classic Robin’s costume. (with a few other basic elements)</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I knew what kind of fabric I wanted for the costume (Knit) because it comes in the bright colors I want, and it also has the right feel and look to it.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I wanted satin for the cape, of course!</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXeVmsEu0U8MZUMb02fpdPqDh9-bHctyMkNt4T-BHqfTmh0_A7zLcZYObqbgES39-ziJM2sMbp_CM8yWHOezjaZx1syii7rOIgw2BG9pTZgdzdD5Tmpa1dnJG8baVzH6HHxSist7U_j1w/s1600/IMG_6376.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXeVmsEu0U8MZUMb02fpdPqDh9-bHctyMkNt4T-BHqfTmh0_A7zLcZYObqbgES39-ziJM2sMbp_CM8yWHOezjaZx1syii7rOIgw2BG9pTZgdzdD5Tmpa1dnJG8baVzH6HHxSist7U_j1w/s320/IMG_6376.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
<span style="color: red;">I was able to find everything perfectly - bright green, bright red, dark black, and a light yellow (not gold!) for the cape.</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<b><span style="color: red;">IT’S SEW TIME!!</span></b><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<b><span style="color: red;">Leggings</span></b><br />
<span style="color: red;">I worked on the leggings first.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I have since vowed to never make another pair again!!</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">They turned out alright, but I discovered that you should always check to make sure the fabric you think is double stretch really does stretch both ways!!</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_qhlE5hufGGhCHxMuKzQaEUaQViJ-8I3F28NWGUbh0fuMZwiNhf8M8vADSiUaU0vzGNw6Xrdi8YDitRSCHlmoV9lV-xhrrk48SHxMrvwTIJGJc0z4EJfMBF5x6bt4XYbqVEs96SnObZ0/s1600/IMG_6377.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="223" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_qhlE5hufGGhCHxMuKzQaEUaQViJ-8I3F28NWGUbh0fuMZwiNhf8M8vADSiUaU0vzGNw6Xrdi8YDitRSCHlmoV9lV-xhrrk48SHxMrvwTIJGJc0z4EJfMBF5x6bt4XYbqVEs96SnObZ0/s400/IMG_6377.JPG" width="400" /></a><br />
<span style="color: red;">I used a pair of my leggings for a guideline, and they worked out well. The cut leggings look a bit like a lop-sided triangle.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I also added a few inches to both top and bottom for hems.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">Wide band of elastic at the waist</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicjOHXDBf6ZuYGwe_M6d4ZQOvPuF-IDk5S4krz-a67vIXzaWWkbdlDGsWjw2EcaQyEVAQFlNh7ZVjKd7BL2L0OLLsmdqtlfTDJV2iTqa3NtM6njhkA45OhaemfmbaWj14aa-kg7AnNWW0/s1600/IMG_6378.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicjOHXDBf6ZuYGwe_M6d4ZQOvPuF-IDk5S4krz-a67vIXzaWWkbdlDGsWjw2EcaQyEVAQFlNh7ZVjKd7BL2L0OLLsmdqtlfTDJV2iTqa3NtM6njhkA45OhaemfmbaWj14aa-kg7AnNWW0/s400/IMG_6378.JPG" width="223" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3dh_Y_-d5XJdpMkWM-luz9NuncJP8GFFwOFbal_YMiLUV1V2ZQNnxSWzl98tzoJLpgevqcfoiAd3WJWEmTT3tBphkP_i1O-dBvc7DZBPPZukPBPj8c1F0dB5L203dJWV5cacm_ALbqxg/s1600/IMG_6379.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3dh_Y_-d5XJdpMkWM-luz9NuncJP8GFFwOFbal_YMiLUV1V2ZQNnxSWzl98tzoJLpgevqcfoiAd3WJWEmTT3tBphkP_i1O-dBvc7DZBPPZukPBPj8c1F0dB5L203dJWV5cacm_ALbqxg/s400/IMG_6379.JPG" width="223" /></a><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<b><span style="color: red;">Cape</span></b><br />
<span style="color: red;">The cape is wider then it is long (due to the skirt, I chose to go with a shorter cape)</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I measured across my shoulders and added about 4 inches in either direction for width.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">For length, I went from shoulder seem to mid butt.</span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQHglSkj2mK5fsBZ-kd6dsE5YVep-kAb3DiCGS34R24ZxSMMVvz9OyJ5_ypj9d2tZcl-ifofnmfseioQzBTizse0yzG_kAP8AbKd4henW4u2u3oYTHmer_gTwOyRsDBVb-e9xUiiy43dw/s1600/IMG_6380.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="223" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQHglSkj2mK5fsBZ-kd6dsE5YVep-kAb3DiCGS34R24ZxSMMVvz9OyJ5_ypj9d2tZcl-ifofnmfseioQzBTizse0yzG_kAP8AbKd4henW4u2u3oYTHmer_gTwOyRsDBVb-e9xUiiy43dw/s400/IMG_6380.JPG" width="400" /></a><br />
<span style="color: red;">I self lined the cape, sewed it together, pressed and then top-stitched to make it lay flat.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPTNZRoe1N1td1rvJrZXtuj1iJgUFFBs7cfJUiWw6NjZl3mX2ZdXbr6g8Yu-4da4I-4FqKq-0VtZCadKhkCIt2_bZZ_wZTrB0-kGOsOn4mtoLnifeLKPFNH5Did7DajLBzFNbGjBZ1NQ4/s1600/IMG_6381.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="358" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPTNZRoe1N1td1rvJrZXtuj1iJgUFFBs7cfJUiWw6NjZl3mX2ZdXbr6g8Yu-4da4I-4FqKq-0VtZCadKhkCIt2_bZZ_wZTrB0-kGOsOn4mtoLnifeLKPFNH5Did7DajLBzFNbGjBZ1NQ4/s640/IMG_6381.JPG" width="640" /></a><br />
<span style="color: red;">My mom helped me gather it in at the shoulders and I stitched it to get the gathers to lay correctly.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I used Snap Tape to attach the cape to the tunic shoulders.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOaTwBW59OavgOZy_zEYo9x47PUE5t-elAvgO1T7cd8xaL8lTivepNM5BZ9hjrN05bEfe_WwwetfXnCGj_0kwXEEmHu_z7AYnlBWUdLYsYpcOSjJuQINwLX2dLPvof9gUn7oeQcQ_P-wM/s1600/IMG_6477.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOaTwBW59OavgOZy_zEYo9x47PUE5t-elAvgO1T7cd8xaL8lTivepNM5BZ9hjrN05bEfe_WwwetfXnCGj_0kwXEEmHu_z7AYnlBWUdLYsYpcOSjJuQINwLX2dLPvof9gUn7oeQcQ_P-wM/s320/IMG_6477.JPG" width="179" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuLGGCXzaKOIhw5XCe4CmZ6lxRzEoe4gj2PB9PHmjJS7pZSJtXKajfgI1VkuWHLAuJOohaCy2UzzOirI4cY6iHKqOw3d_8tkrW63aPNxvjyPk-UgUHepedgTUfFIaCZObdkX0f4PoTHgQ/s1600/IMG_6478.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuLGGCXzaKOIhw5XCe4CmZ6lxRzEoe4gj2PB9PHmjJS7pZSJtXKajfgI1VkuWHLAuJOohaCy2UzzOirI4cY6iHKqOw3d_8tkrW63aPNxvjyPk-UgUHepedgTUfFIaCZObdkX0f4PoTHgQ/s320/IMG_6478.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<b><span style="color: red;">Tunic/Leotard/collar/cap sleeves</span></b><br />
<span style="color: red;">I started with finding a really long shirt that fits my curves really well and was high necked.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I used that as my pattern and added a few inches to the bottom and sides for seems.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I sewed the shoulder together and split the back for my zipper, and widened the neck hole a little bit.</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<span style="color: red;">The collar I used from Simplicity 4942 for the basic shape, but did some modification to make it fit correctly.</span><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuob4_K_paM_uG9O46TnIczbovH_SGriTd4EMelsDa_YyXbbEB_zdJoVJ931nzQgSntygnkNxKArTI0cI3RzxZFg9xhf3KaDs7rw09-2nCOwIjAzpAHqRvTNrqU7mxmcN-zWF-PR6aVMM/s1600/Pattern.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuob4_K_paM_uG9O46TnIczbovH_SGriTd4EMelsDa_YyXbbEB_zdJoVJ931nzQgSntygnkNxKArTI0cI3RzxZFg9xhf3KaDs7rw09-2nCOwIjAzpAHqRvTNrqU7mxmcN-zWF-PR6aVMM/s200/Pattern.JPG" width="111" /></a><br />
<span style="color: red;">I cut the collar in one piece (it looked a bit like a bat symbol!), cut two of fabric and one of interfacing. Then I cut them all in half.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEin4-7Zbi5poL3VUYRJUX1yy00l54lO4cY4BjImEjZf6IaMKAtIlor1hv6Qj_3p7XYPBuJANcOh9Q4jPdr0YgJUPziyWh_ehLq7qZMsDrbvPpVXNOpm5hZyw7dD-Z2a0EdqacncIACxkb0/s1600/IMG_6382.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEin4-7Zbi5poL3VUYRJUX1yy00l54lO4cY4BjImEjZf6IaMKAtIlor1hv6Qj_3p7XYPBuJANcOh9Q4jPdr0YgJUPziyWh_ehLq7qZMsDrbvPpVXNOpm5hZyw7dD-Z2a0EdqacncIACxkb0/s320/IMG_6382.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
<span style="color: red;">The collar will be in two pieces because the zipper is going all the way up the back into the collar.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I sewed it them together, and top-stitched to lay flat.</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<span style="color: red;">I pinned the collar into the neck of the tunic and sewed it down. It was hard to get it centered with out a marker, so it ended up a bit off center, which screwed up my pattern.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">Oh well.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">That’s how you can tell I’m a real super hero - my costume was handmade!!</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.</span><br />

<span style="color: red;">I put the zipper in next. I think next time I will go with a shorter zipper.</span><span style="color: red;"></span><br />

<span style="color: red;">I started out by cutting out the sides where my legs would be, then sewing the bottom together. I then took in the sides to match my curves and worked on the shoulders and seems.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">My siblings got tired of me yelling ‘I need a zip!!”</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">They told me next time to make it so it fit the first time.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I love you guys.</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<span style="color: red;">I added the cap sleeves in green after I finalized the tunic. I laid the tunic down on my green fabric and tried the match the shape of the sleeves to the tunic. I had pin and re-pin them a few times before I was happy with the placement and sewed them down.</span><br />

<span style="color: red;">I roll hemmed every rough edge on the tunic and sleeves.</span><br />
<br style="color: red;" />
<b><span style="color: red;">Skirt</span></b><br />
<span style="color: red;">I used a skirt of mine as a pattern (I recommend using a circular one)</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">Sewed the sides up, put in the elastic waist band, edited the length, and then cut out my ‘fluff’ and sewed it under the elastic band.</span><br />

<br style="color: red;" />
<b><span style="color: red;">Utility Belt</span></b><br />
<span style="color: red;">Still is in need of utilities!!!</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I measured my waist (wearing my full regalia at this point) and added two inches to either end, cut and sewed, then turned it and top stitched.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I did not use any interfacing so that it would fit my curves better.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I used hook and eyes for the closure.</span><br />

<br style="color: red;" />
<b><span style="color: red;">Emblem</span></b><br />
<span style="color: red;">I designed my own version of Robin’s emblem and drew a full sized pattern which I cut out and used to trace my ‘R’, sewed the two circles on to my tunic and then traced everything with black fabric paint to make it pop.</span><br />

<span style="color: red;">I used heat adhesive interfacing on the back of the R and the braces to make them more sturdy.</span><br />

<span style="color: red;">The three braces or cross pieces or thingies (think classic Robin) were cut out, then roll hemmed and attached to the tunic.</span><br />

<br style="color: red;" />
<b><span style="color: red;">Gloves</span></b><br />
<span style="color: red;">I cut two long strips of fabric (enough to cover my forearms all the way around and from finger tip to elbow) and basted them together, then narrowed them as needed for my wrist, using my own arm inside the ‘sleeve’ as a guide.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I narrowed between the fingers and the thumb as well, to create the look I wanted.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">I roll hemmed the gloves and might add some embellishment later if I so feel.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">Oh, do note, I made the gloves out of knit, so they stretch a bit. That’s important!!</span><br />

<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">My latest project is Arwen’s Rose Gown. She wears it in a scene cut from what was probably The Fellowship of the Ring. (Who knows with all the mixing they did)</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">There are pictures of Liv with the Hobbits, Peter Jackson and a few production assistants on set for what is obviously Rivendell.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e06666;">Besides that, I don’t really see this as a traveling gown.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">In one of the sites I ran across in my research, it credits this gown to a scene between Arwen and Aragorn while Frodo watches. It did not site how this conclusion was drawn, and I disagree. There is no evidence of this. (unless it is mentioned in one of the special features on the DVDs that I haven‘t watched)</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgH8vTQMs7JRWQOxk4LbIgpR72A-UN_q1Yd3lYecUZvF8_G33jgm6CJOA6bV9hTv0yiIYf7QuFqq5Thxjqj5bBNmBYI8gd_NwU5mWE55qGQA1BtvVbtr_m-M1JszyooTpri8QO-LH7i3zM/s1600/Movi_Lord_TheF0067.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="234" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgH8vTQMs7JRWQOxk4LbIgpR72A-UN_q1Yd3lYecUZvF8_G33jgm6CJOA6bV9hTv0yiIYf7QuFqq5Thxjqj5bBNmBYI8gd_NwU5mWE55qGQA1BtvVbtr_m-M1JszyooTpri8QO-LH7i3zM/s320/Movi_Lord_TheF0067.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">My research on this gown has been expansive, and in all the photos and references to the gown, Aragorn is never seen or mentioned. In several photos on set, Liv is standing and all four hobbits are with her, but never Aragorn. My suspicion is this scene comes between Frodo being hugged by Merry and Pippin (during his first day up and around after Weathertop) and his reunion with Bilbo, and was between Arwen and Frodo with the other hobbits watching. Likely the conversation had to do with the Flight to the Fords.</span><span style="color: #e06666;"></span><br />

<span style="color: #e06666;">*** I have also seen production photos of Arwen in her Chase Gown fighting orcs or nazguil (out of costume) and it is possible there was a battle scene during the flight that was cut, and this enters the conversation.</span><span style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtr4gqZRNNHeUxtvNVZ0lNsa4GwsUMEa3HdIrfbnlm3_vBk-oDlUOsrnOlWx5qvTVaK8v6fKU_27x7T3jugAQpCGNZYxhGxHjlRxQwE02kTeCK2OskhvOds1zRUfWl5W0dVTO5zkleXYA/s1600/ref16.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="142" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtr4gqZRNNHeUxtvNVZ0lNsa4GwsUMEa3HdIrfbnlm3_vBk-oDlUOsrnOlWx5qvTVaK8v6fKU_27x7T3jugAQpCGNZYxhGxHjlRxQwE02kTeCK2OskhvOds1zRUfWl5W0dVTO5zkleXYA/s200/ref16.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The background of the photos looks more like Helms Deep, however, and in that case, this whole realm of thought was irrelevant. He he!! ***</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">We now return you to your regularly scheduled notes!!</span><br />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Ok…one more note. There is one photo that I found that confuses me greatly. It’s a scene cap of Arwen looking up at the camera, and based on the neck line and color, it’s her Rose Gown. However, the fact she isn’t wearing her cape and that her hair is different then in all the other photos make me highly curious what scene this shot was actually in. (??)</span><span style="color: #e06666;"></span><br />

<span style="color: #e06666;">BREAKDOWN!</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">(of the dress!!)</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The Rose Gown is at least three parts - underdress, overdress/coat, and cape with hood/cowl.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMHTy-tlX5Iw0XrTn9WEgqQgf7yNsFDFs5jTIJPYJ_HJjsU78DYZrbg0WTeW9M9JH6RHq-Kv0ukkA94bZE3uGlwATdnvwIoxIL1pauFxnx53I9CIwDqoIoeZI_uf3ze24wlZKFbrYkt_o/s1600/lotr_gal_velky_2002_4_9_7_49_37.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMHTy-tlX5Iw0XrTn9WEgqQgf7yNsFDFs5jTIJPYJ_HJjsU78DYZrbg0WTeW9M9JH6RHq-Kv0ukkA94bZE3uGlwATdnvwIoxIL1pauFxnx53I9CIwDqoIoeZI_uf3ze24wlZKFbrYkt_o/s400/lotr_gal_velky_2002_4_9_7_49_37.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The underdress</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Based on other Arwen’s dresses and the fact many of them are constructed the same way, I believe the underdress to be silk, probably dyed light rose, with a sheer netting of white embroidered flowers sewn over it.</span><span style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioOPldD-QMTXwTIU5WfYRln0LPAmcY1o8RLR6h0XfwzUvaxGIu62nvp3snW_NYCzb_nZmTvVxGs1pWfbFe5LdVol4s0POGZs356O3uTFUt4FGGcbBDWpvitFuYbeqWhnurqXSHGRgAQ3A/s1600/ArwenRose_sj+-+Copy.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioOPldD-QMTXwTIU5WfYRln0LPAmcY1o8RLR6h0XfwzUvaxGIu62nvp3snW_NYCzb_nZmTvVxGs1pWfbFe5LdVol4s0POGZs356O3uTFUt4FGGcbBDWpvitFuYbeqWhnurqXSHGRgAQ3A/s320/ArwenRose_sj+-+Copy.jpg" width="116" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">(As though the silk were lining, but sewn with the right side to the wrong side of the netting so it shows through on the final gown)</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">This idea for construction is similar of many of Galadriel’s gowns, and Arwen’s Arch dress.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The shape of the underdress almost appears to be an empire waist. It’s much looser in bodice and fitting then many of the other dresses in LOTR.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqUzlcRSu1uryHLsEORBCQDW_4NWWUlHpEOCLk-4yHqiCrDLnB4pHOpoNYFPhUQzicXnN_EeTlwkgfNs3y5BovmF1t2SFagjUFvVS2Sn5_JXkQfpyC9O2RzQ4aiMRqjiEabJo-OksyGik/s1600/Movi_Lord_Dele0024.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="281" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqUzlcRSu1uryHLsEORBCQDW_4NWWUlHpEOCLk-4yHqiCrDLnB4pHOpoNYFPhUQzicXnN_EeTlwkgfNs3y5BovmF1t2SFagjUFvVS2Sn5_JXkQfpyC9O2RzQ4aiMRqjiEabJo-OksyGik/s400/Movi_Lord_Dele0024.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The sleeves are tight, similar to the loose/tight fit of the Battle Dress, Farewell Gown and Reforging Cape’s underdress. They appear to have a slight flair at the cuffs.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHFonXYFX7nJop0DxyVA3nJLdZ0j0MRBSSgL0iPONUsKKXX_3N1K6wSuDi9z8IXOtNeH_9aaUuOd3sIYzDCrHZwiglrZOtzkKV59ZebKNVGoQvk2xJk24jdS-wFi56oXzC2TsJQUcwk14/s1600/arwen_battle+-+Copy+-+Copy.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHFonXYFX7nJop0DxyVA3nJLdZ0j0MRBSSgL0iPONUsKKXX_3N1K6wSuDi9z8IXOtNeH_9aaUuOd3sIYzDCrHZwiglrZOtzkKV59ZebKNVGoQvk2xJk24jdS-wFi56oXzC2TsJQUcwk14/s200/arwen_battle+-+Copy+-+Copy.jpg" width="114" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The collar is a deep cut, almost V neck. It rounds gently and sits wide on the shoulders and deep in the breast, like the Arch dress, Morning Gown, and Lavender Bead dress.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiM43k9hRHj-4sXShfYF9KB_O-adeKUsSUpYrsfygqcZsl7WPzZwY02wXWFVo3qPd8rvkWE3Uop2yz-KUIwlZtL_7PkRVTXTLFussxpEMgTalRdrfT3b7JJQ3-AL7QXSquzdkkiomAtbj0/s1600/Movi_Lord_Dele0050.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="197" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiM43k9hRHj-4sXShfYF9KB_O-adeKUsSUpYrsfygqcZsl7WPzZwY02wXWFVo3qPd8rvkWE3Uop2yz-KUIwlZtL_7PkRVTXTLFussxpEMgTalRdrfT3b7JJQ3-AL7QXSquzdkkiomAtbj0/s320/Movi_Lord_Dele0050.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The hem is a straight hem, just above the g</span><span style="color: #e06666;">round. There is no train.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXn7ZWO-QtX42gr2HmyMDDwuwFQjdlDWIHXTy2mMS3kIOeVXw08xUVb_UxTwteGJwe9Nk9mDXXPCWhAYNLLpTwgLvtChgA39rDcO9EQAoGXKUX-NWdKNOgeDy16hNwvQTgSDhXYFsqqQ8/s1600/Movi_Lord_Dele0009.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXn7ZWO-QtX42gr2HmyMDDwuwFQjdlDWIHXTy2mMS3kIOeVXw08xUVb_UxTwteGJwe9Nk9mDXXPCWhAYNLLpTwgLvtChgA39rDcO9EQAoGXKUX-NWdKNOgeDy16hNwvQTgSDhXYFsqqQ8/s400/Movi_Lord_Dele0009.jpg" width="400" /></a><br />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<b><span style="color: #e06666;">The overdress/coat</span></b><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">(I will call it the overdress)</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Is likely a dyed velvet like many of her dresses. It is a lovely rose velvet, and you can see the sheen in the folds of the dress. </span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">It is slightly fitted through the bust, then falls free.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The front is sewn together from the neckline down about six inches. (Over the bust) It is open the rest of the way.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKj-0FYMv7r15y0yDIwyZENDfsOPNgnJvhFT1_-CziBta7YyNMt9pP7ZlbJZ_9B7h0m1BU_TtFSExY3JzBIsS2j-ZWSBRTlLyALHJ9aN2IlOEJjNeKjhZ6XYpvLk-W2iT3BHDQsfcxkBo/s1600/ArwenRose_sj.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKj-0FYMv7r15y0yDIwyZENDfsOPNgnJvhFT1_-CziBta7YyNMt9pP7ZlbJZ_9B7h0m1BU_TtFSExY3JzBIsS2j-ZWSBRTlLyALHJ9aN2IlOEJjNeKjhZ6XYpvLk-W2iT3BHDQsfcxkBo/s400/ArwenRose_sj.jpg" width="146" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">There is no seam below the bust, it is one piece of fabric from shoulder seam to hem.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The neckline mirrors that of the underdress. You can see a hint of the light rosy underdress under the collar of the overdress.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYtwLQm2hgCuvD2eX3COKTS38SCrwBIDVsMFtPBC3LhWv2WhzWBhW453TWtlRLCXoDEf8d-Nh34TFmGA41Ok_Vu1QU2_WFh9Ir-fNyhJHqWrSS7UjfdmvcgysXW6wmzkelzzehcIE0x0M/s1600/Movi_Lord_Dele0008+-+Copy.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="177" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYtwLQm2hgCuvD2eX3COKTS38SCrwBIDVsMFtPBC3LhWv2WhzWBhW453TWtlRLCXoDEf8d-Nh34TFmGA41Ok_Vu1QU2_WFh9Ir-fNyhJHqWrSS7UjfdmvcgysXW6wmzkelzzehcIE0x0M/s320/Movi_Lord_Dele0008+-+Copy.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The sleeves are in two parts, seamed at 1/3 down (from the top) There is a Elvin scroll pressed into the velvet just above the seam.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The top part of the sleeves are tight (ish).</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The lower part of the sleeve is much larger. They are split at the elbow, not above it. The hem of the lower sleeves are straight, not rounded.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Falling straight down, the sleeves of the Rose Gown look like tube sleeves, but are not because of the split on the side which allows for more movement.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Ignore the strange pull on the fabric on the dress and sleeves in the pic below. It’s from the mannequin, not how the dress is styled.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgYzndE5pem7nvGvRKGIxVvH2ZS-fqrYxJNEqzQmALonfu4meCcBPM3gsGA9t8RfE0tA86mePciGYr04JbtgkQd2Jrfe1xL4011WDTu551kbggBYu479-y-ez3NV-DbXSFf_H6qZoecYs/s1600/ArwenRose_sj+-+Copy+%282%29.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgYzndE5pem7nvGvRKGIxVvH2ZS-fqrYxJNEqzQmALonfu4meCcBPM3gsGA9t8RfE0tA86mePciGYr04JbtgkQd2Jrfe1xL4011WDTu551kbggBYu479-y-ez3NV-DbXSFf_H6qZoecYs/s400/ArwenRose_sj+-+Copy+%282%29.jpg" width="83" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfP6NOoJdQG3ezExPb0nnMN8ytqpRwqyC9TW9VVPiiBOvoTNgauSWS4NYY_oTcokzENhrwkI3905MeYg6IVVv4M4-qt5jw6PzbPQrMtqjpYEo-YDzaba6xv3-SPRAcyCsKEGZpWD0O3N4/s1600/Movi_Lord_Dele0020+-+Copy.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="105" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfP6NOoJdQG3ezExPb0nnMN8ytqpRwqyC9TW9VVPiiBOvoTNgauSWS4NYY_oTcokzENhrwkI3905MeYg6IVVv4M4-qt5jw6PzbPQrMtqjpYEo-YDzaba6xv3-SPRAcyCsKEGZpWD0O3N4/s200/Movi_Lord_Dele0020+-+Copy.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The hem of the overdress is a lettuce age.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The overdress comes down and puddles around the dress. It likely has a train. It is the longest part of the gown.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6EUAwsTh8drJEPITuU0LevtzZglQxWZqcD2Ig0wHf2TRiDaI9QsK-0ZvStb_TN52oxIehsz3qh91GiJJrihtky0cUR9HsoqhXu6QseYjeIFPtRsndUS59SCiM73ylYKl5xGr3SvEurQc/s1600/ArwenRose_1015+-+Copy.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6EUAwsTh8drJEPITuU0LevtzZglQxWZqcD2Ig0wHf2TRiDaI9QsK-0ZvStb_TN52oxIehsz3qh91GiJJrihtky0cUR9HsoqhXu6QseYjeIFPtRsndUS59SCiM73ylYKl5xGr3SvEurQc/s1600/ArwenRose_1015+-+Copy.jpg" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The overdress has a belt of matching velvet (about two to three inches wide) that fastens around the gown just below the bust, creating an empire style waistline. </span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrGpzdqI737ZQ4a1YQZ9srW1uT1DYyJAD6FZ-7sMI9mzCbiEjhAiK1E7q8NlnSlBdxNyddwLUBLJjEEP5kNUqJb7BkGB4kTgI2JZ3LbiAp_8BEh99X1dWaqkXtUEgow74YS-W-m9egeR4/s1600/rosedress+-+Copy.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="123" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrGpzdqI737ZQ4a1YQZ9srW1uT1DYyJAD6FZ-7sMI9mzCbiEjhAiK1E7q8NlnSlBdxNyddwLUBLJjEEP5kNUqJb7BkGB4kTgI2JZ3LbiAp_8BEh99X1dWaqkXtUEgow74YS-W-m9egeR4/s200/rosedress+-+Copy.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">My guess is they used buttons (maybe even a zipper??) to fasten the belt. I will probably use hook and eyes.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The belt is not in the display of the rose gown, so it obviously is not attached to it.</span><br />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The Cape/ Hood/Cowl</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Had me confused for a long time, reason being there are no reference photos showing the hem line of the cape, and the only thing I had to go on the was original concept design.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhr9PE79ZQt6iwulzABYOCZ-jGQQ4clh8PLsy0OZkN2THb9iH8p95Wva0IWttfNnuAtApqAlk7Vye3DCyaAQyPIiv4_Wboq2WvGr8hoeLaGBbWOb4n77Y6eAG_u_KYaX0Vvo8DaHidyaw/s1600/Arwen_Rosegown_small.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhr9PE79ZQt6iwulzABYOCZ-jGQQ4clh8PLsy0OZkN2THb9iH8p95Wva0IWttfNnuAtApqAlk7Vye3DCyaAQyPIiv4_Wboq2WvGr8hoeLaGBbWOb4n77Y6eAG_u_KYaX0Vvo8DaHidyaw/s640/Arwen_Rosegown_small.jpg" width="430" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">My original idea had the cape as a leaf-shaped, single piece of velvet that fell from shoulders to ankles with a hood/cowl attached. </span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">BUT, after careful examination and some logic work, I think I finally figured out how they made the cape, and my first guess wasn’t that far off.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The cape is made of the same rosy velvet as the overdress. It falls from the shoulders to just above the ankle at the longest part. It does not look like there is any sort of pattern on the cape. It is shorter then the overdress.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The cape is a rectangle of fabric with a hole cut in the center, draped over Liv and then the front cut in two. (somewhat similar to Legolas’s counsel cape or Eowyn’s starry mantle)</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8t1JOKZ2Sx90AeSSZQTQacKm61vdDLbTC5YVWfc92_i1vkvJj_L9Q5tPUO8pevb7EVEuL1lT5IohR_R0mJPeEYw7cSeqSZTfKmnAoJ3iyfpGNTpDQaD5cq_wHiwtgdw9dc78qkx2GiZs/s1600/Movi_Lord_Dele0025+-+Copy.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8t1JOKZ2Sx90AeSSZQTQacKm61vdDLbTC5YVWfc92_i1vkvJj_L9Q5tPUO8pevb7EVEuL1lT5IohR_R0mJPeEYw7cSeqSZTfKmnAoJ3iyfpGNTpDQaD5cq_wHiwtgdw9dc78qkx2GiZs/s640/Movi_Lord_Dele0025+-+Copy.jpg" width="352" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">See that little drape up there that just appears and is shorter then the rest of the cape?? That’s the edge of the rectangle of fabric.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi13TSHPlPpGTGAUXCzaYY-5CmXiVwXd-EkLuWYykpjIUd20IHQyRE7Q_ra4X0WJdlPT1is09NuZhbc1vx9Iw40j-wDYsHGQrQgpf89Ax1tL_U97_IT3JPYpboFWPCgdFJ2Z0lUNDXlsBw/s1600/rosedress.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi13TSHPlPpGTGAUXCzaYY-5CmXiVwXd-EkLuWYykpjIUd20IHQyRE7Q_ra4X0WJdlPT1is09NuZhbc1vx9Iw40j-wDYsHGQrQgpf89Ax1tL_U97_IT3JPYpboFWPCgdFJ2Z0lUNDXlsBw/s400/rosedress.jpg" width="247" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">You can see how it sits on her shoulders here, with the cowl.</span><br />

<span style="color: #e06666;">My theory is you have to get into this thing by pulling it over your head. See how they are adjusting it? Liv is pulling at the cowl. And in the second picture, you can see the assistant holding the cape by the cowl, and the hole there.</span><br />

<span style="color: #e06666;">The cowl is large enough to be a hood, and drapes down the back. It is sewn in at the neckline. (the original concept design calls for a crossing of the cowl, but I don’t really see that in the photos)</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Mine will probably be made unattached and then sewn on to the cape after I get the positioning correct.</span><br />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">MINE!!</span><br />

<span style="color: #e06666;">(I know you probably get tired of seeing my poor imitations, but hey…</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">..it’s my blog…and maybe my mistakes will help you make yours better!!)</span><br />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Material</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">I went to the store knowing exactly what I wanted.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">And I found it.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Rosy colored stretch velvet. It has the right sheen, the right texture and falls right. </span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The down side will obviously be the stretching. Blick. Well, storage in a box, here we come!!</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">I am glad I didn’t get ’real’ velvet for this gown however, because I do have one dress made of velvet and I have to be extremely careful about storage…my Arwen’s Battle Dress</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">(I have a blog for that, if you haven’t seen it - it is one of my faves!!)</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The stretch velvet will be for the overdress, cape and hood.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">I wanted 9 yards, and ended up with 7 ½…I guess we’ll see how much I can stretch out of it, eh? </span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">No pun intended, of course.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbFreS4CCoP7M3O8dgNSqwOTEtbEwfzplDjSMpTkRW1FsxrKzqNDK2dmb417_DKWnLVIR7Qy0rX4yEBNGzV2C4dBLGS7Btsl3tinn8O3AQh5VF9bE-P2pAGlBJ-arOblB_1gKfj66Jxyg/s1600/Overdress+%282%29.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbFreS4CCoP7M3O8dgNSqwOTEtbEwfzplDjSMpTkRW1FsxrKzqNDK2dmb417_DKWnLVIR7Qy0rX4yEBNGzV2C4dBLGS7Btsl3tinn8O3AQh5VF9bE-P2pAGlBJ-arOblB_1gKfj66Jxyg/s320/Overdress+%282%29.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">For the underdress, I didn’t have as clear an idea. I knew I wanted something light, pretty and soft. I also knew I didn’t want to go the two layers of the undergown route.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">What I ended up finding, much to my surprise, (I would have never picked this!!) was a bolt of quilter’s cotton in a beautiful marbled pink.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">It doesn’t have white flowers, but the pattern is gorgeous! There are light pinks, roses, bright pinks and white all marbled in together. And to my shock it actually looks really nice under the stretch velvet!</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Not to mention it is washable, press-able, lightweight, soft and breathable…I think a win?</span><br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTVtwrnRXH6liEzPxNpjbI5rzfFVrjoPnRz1kbDED3VgxZHNQjNKRwbnIuspR8osJAGDV7mBUZAhrgbnoytIcGPX0MqerOfhQa8mxIiKZ4KaVo-pYC5cAHTxIZx-__K-tWH5pWaDq2QQ0/s1600/Underdress+%282%29.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTVtwrnRXH6liEzPxNpjbI5rzfFVrjoPnRz1kbDED3VgxZHNQjNKRwbnIuspR8osJAGDV7mBUZAhrgbnoytIcGPX0MqerOfhQa8mxIiKZ4KaVo-pYC5cAHTxIZx-__K-tWH5pWaDq2QQ0/s320/Underdress+%282%29.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">So maybe not perfectly accurate, but I am happy. I can always make another underdress should I find a perfect material later on.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTVtwrnRXH6liEzPxNpjbI5rzfFVrjoPnRz1kbDED3VgxZHNQjNKRwbnIuspR8osJAGDV7mBUZAhrgbnoytIcGPX0MqerOfhQa8mxIiKZ4KaVo-pYC5cAHTxIZx-__K-tWH5pWaDq2QQ0/s1600/Underdress+%282%29.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><br style="color: #e06666;" />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">PATTERN</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">For the underdress, I used Simplicity pattern 4940. It’s one of the Lord of the Ring</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">take-off patterns.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">(Eowyn’s Shieldmaiden gown, her green gown and Arwen’s Blood Red dress)</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">I used the pattern for the ‘Blood Red’ take-off gown,(dress C) minus the collar, sleeves and bows. </span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-Z7nc1zg9_VXAs1eodV5Ov4X27LiSDp77OCObNV6JBWOAVlYq8Jtt3xReF2GrfvaKkMKS4PxnGsaPcLmpMx3dRlymIYMCUJOtVANkD1mQakYUI8LV_4cYJq5Yg46-kUfuRIVSt8ALsLY/s1600/Movi_Lord_Dele0025.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixW9hLjAB-POgDT-5xENIjZkixcrCvQfubCpwmUf7gUs5QJsMHLmlacY9jE3IgOxThXSfD3YUkNWyDZ-u_WxA-IrYat3rCXT4CEaOpu1SOUo9hSL9WQFujpRhgf5a7UKLfCS3YrNi7MYM/s1600/Underdress.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixW9hLjAB-POgDT-5xENIjZkixcrCvQfubCpwmUf7gUs5QJsMHLmlacY9jE3IgOxThXSfD3YUkNWyDZ-u_WxA-IrYat3rCXT4CEaOpu1SOUo9hSL9WQFujpRhgf5a7UKLfCS3YrNi7MYM/s320/Underdress.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">I used this pattern primarily for the neckline.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">We had to make our own facing for the gown.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">For the sleeves of the underdress, I used Butterick B4827</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">I’ve used this pattern many times, most notably for my Arwen’s Battle Dress and Contessa Dress.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoQiCXP87N6FBw8lFkO3kNORNr0clyI8nD93y0aSkyz8GdMbT2wkDQ9OIVnMxJY56j7OOV-wWdynZySlM9PZtOMJ2tjAZtjKRXinPPelPk4jTKsO9K_dd2sIS-vqJKCvO8NurVQcDRJgc/s1600/underdress+%285%29.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoQiCXP87N6FBw8lFkO3kNORNr0clyI8nD93y0aSkyz8GdMbT2wkDQ9OIVnMxJY56j7OOV-wWdynZySlM9PZtOMJ2tjAZtjKRXinPPelPk4jTKsO9K_dd2sIS-vqJKCvO8NurVQcDRJgc/s320/underdress+%285%29.JPG" width="179" /></a><br />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">For the overdress, I used Butterick 6630.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">It’s pattern for a Napoleonic style dress and coat. I used the coat part, because it opens and fits the bust like I want my dress to do. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">For the sleeves, I combined Butterick B5007 and Mccalls MP273. I used the top of the sleeve from B5007 and the bottom of the sleeve from MP273.</span><br />

<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">For the belt I used my favorite belt pattern from Butterick B4827</span><br />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">CUTTING</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Underdress</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">I cut the underdress pretty much to the pattern, only adding a few inches on the bottom to ensure it was long enough, and of course cutting the sleeves from Butterick B4827.</span><br />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Overdress</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Was very interesting to cut out. The fabric was so thick, I has to resort to using our Cutco© scissors because our fabric sheers wouldn’t cut!!</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">I cut the 6630 pattern mostly to specs. I did have to modify the neckline to mach my underdress, which was archived by holding the underdress up to the cut fabric and then cutting it. Then I had to match the back to the front…I hope it turned out ok!!</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The sleeves were fairly simple. The top part (B5007) did not need any modification, and the bottom part (MP273) I cut down to get it to match the width of the top sleeves and keep them straight on the bottom and sides.</span><br />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Belt</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Cut on the smallest size of the B4827 belt pattern.</span><br />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Cowl</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The Cowl/Hood I cut out using my Legolas’s Counsel cape cowl as a reference.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">I extended the cowl so it would be larger.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">I folded the fabric over and cut along that line. The hood is about a foot tall, when standing up</span><br />

<br />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">Cape</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">For the cape itself, I got my mom to lend a hand. We cut a hole in the center of a rectangle of fabric (not too large!!) and I put it on (short sides to at my arms), rounded slightly, and cut up the front.</span><br />

<span style="color: #e06666;">SEWING!</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">(the best part!!)</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The underdress was fairly easy. I opted for a zipper in the back since it would be hidden under the overdress and cape. It’s shaped but roomy. I did have to take up the shoulders a bit to fit my figure better.</span><br />

<span style="color: #e06666;">For the sleeves, I sewed them a bit narrower and widened out at the bottom for the flair.</span><br />

<span style="color: #e06666;">All the seams on the underdressed are surged.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The hem is about an inch and a half above the floor, and it is roll hemmed.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The back is a bit lower then I would have liked. I would recommend cutting it higher.</span><br />

<span style="color: #e06666;">The overdress was interesting. The pattern was very different then anything I’d worked with before, and add to that the add lib I did, you get a very unique gown!!</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The bodice was a pain in the butt.</span> <br />

<span style="color: #e06666;">It has interfacing and lining (I self lined), and the lining gave me quite a bit of trouble. </span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">After getting it all together I discovered that the bodice didn’t fit me right, so I had to take up some tucks on the side, which helped considerably.</span><br />

<span style="color: #e06666;">The sleeves were actually quite easy. I hemmed them the bottom section first, then sewed it to the top part of the sleeve and attached them to the bodice.</span><br />

<span style="color: #e06666;">The skirt of the overdress came together well. It is about a foot longer then the underdress and drapes very nicely.

<span style="color: #e06666;">On the whole the overdress turned out nicely. I dislike the seem between the bodice and skirt, but am hoping the belt will hide that when I get it done.</span><br />

<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The belt does not have interfacing (I tried it and it was way too thick). It is top stitched to keep its shape, and fastened with hook and eyes.</span><br />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The cape was roll hemmed only, nothing further done. Might want to do some stay stitching at the shoulders if your fabric will allow or is stretchy like mine.</span><br />
<br style="color: #e06666;" />
<span style="color: #e06666;">The cowl was fairly easy to sew. I put the seem on the outside (or underside, depending on how you look at it) and sewed that up. I had my mom pin the cowl to the cape while I wore it, so I could get the positioning right. It was slightly prickly.</span><br />
<span style="color: #e06666;">I was forced to hand sew the cowl to the cape because of the thickness, and then hem the cowl over the opening. I really like how it turned out. It hangs very well and I like how it sits on my shoulders.</span><br />

Thanks to New Age Duchess Designs for the cover photo!!<br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">SCORE!!! I GOT A PART ON CAST FOR BLACKROCK!!!!</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">I’ve been attending Renaissance faires for over six years. I’ve been working them for about a year now…and my greatest wish since my very first faire has been to be on cast…</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">So here I am, a dream come true….on cast for BlackRock (Which will be amazing!!) …playing the Contessa (the part I really wanted!!)</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">Naturally, I needed new garb for this part, and they wanted a Goth/vamp feeling for the part….my first thought in response was something along the lines of Padme’s Senate gown in Episode II…</span><br />

<span style="color: #990000;">But that’s far more renaissance then medieval....So I had my boss look through my sketch book, and here is what she picked out for me to make and wear.</span><br />

<span style="color: #990000;">And I’ll be the first to admit, I did not like this dress when I sketched it. It was based mostly on Galadriel’s Mirror Gown from LOTR</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #990000;">…I also worked in under sleeves from Arwen’s various dresses, a sash from Arwen’s farewell dress…the original design called for two dresses, the overdress of lace, like </span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">Arwen’s Arch dress….Yeah, I make very simple patterns, right???</span><br />

<span style="color: #990000;">Well, after being simplified, my Contessa gown will be one layer of black fabric, no train, with tight inner sleeves of gold, huge black over sleeves lined in burgundy, a burgundy collar and sash both embroidered in gold. </span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">….</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">Or maybe I didn’t simply that enough??</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">Sounds fairly easy, right? HA!</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">PATTERN</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">First off, I made two dresses. The first one made me look like a man (not like a young, shapely contessa!), so my mom helped me with the second one in order to get it done on time…thanks Mommy!!</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">The first pattern we tried was</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">McCall M4490</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="color: #990000;">We’d picked this one up a few months before. It was period with no train and had lacing as well as tight sleeves. Game on! Eh, not so much.</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">It wasn’t until afterwards we realized it also called for 8½ yards of fabric…. And that it needed to be gathered in the front, which made for a very baggy front, at least on me. So… </span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">We ended up using one of our favorite patterns- -</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">McCall M4491</span><br />

<span style="color: #990000;">We used this one for the basic dress (Dress A), and also for the huge sleeves (Dress D).</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">We used the bottom part of the huge sleeve, adapted a bit - we didn’t want the sleeves in two pieces.</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">(We did the same thing in my Arwen Battle Dress form Lord of the Rings a few months before - We’re getting really good at it!)</span><br />

<span style="color: #990000;">Just the sash of dress B (I think), widening it a few inches per my fancy. This pattern is a take off of LOTR dresses</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">(Arwen’s Chase dress, farewell dress and dream dress)</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">The inner sleeves of the dress are from</span><br />

<span style="color: #990000;">The collar of the dress was add-libbed. You might be able to use the facing pieces from M4491.</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">FABRIC</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">Is always a nightmare for me to find…</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">Had I had my way, it would have been a velvet and silk gown, with embroidery over everything!</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">But alas, this is not that dress….so…</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">I got 7 yards of black crepe, (LOVE THAT MATERIAL!!!!) for my dress and over sleeves. It’s extremely light, flows beautifully, and is a dream to sew!! It also doesn’t water stain and washes well!!</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">For the burgundy lining of the sleeves, collar and sash I needed 4 yards. I ended up with lovely crepe-backed satin, which I used in my Evil Queen gown a few weeks earlier.</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">I loved it in that dress so much I went with it for this one. It’s fun and usually doesn’t water stain. That’s important if I get caught out in the rain.</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">I got an extremely light satin for my gold inner sleeves. That only took a yard. I was extremely relived…that there was enough material on the bolt!! :P</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #990000;">CUTTING EVERYTHING INTO BITS</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">We started with the black. </span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">We just cut the pattern normally (a relief after the last few gowns!!) but without adding the extension. In retrospect, we might have added the train because it was a bit short in the back when it came time to hem, so word to the wise!</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">We cut the over sleeves using pattern M4491, and adding the top of B4827 to get it to fit into the arm hole. </span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">We moved on to the gold and cut the inner sleeves. We used the B4827 pattern for width, and cut them long, because I wanted to experiment with points.(Fun fun!!)</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">For the burgundy lining of the sleeves, we used the black already cut as the pattern. The sash was cut to the pattern, only a few inches wider. We cut the belt with no change.</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">The collar was add libbed, cut to match the top of the dress.</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />

<span style="color: #990000;">HI HO HI HO IT’S OFF TO SEW I GO…</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">The dress was fairly easy. It sewed up nice and went quickly. Our sewing machine rage-quit once, but other then that it went nicely!!</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">I took the collar, belt and sash and started my embroidery. I seem to be obsessed with it…</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">I sewed a Elvin design on the belt, a few vines and my personal crest, and more Elvin deigns on the sash. I also did the Blackrock Phoenix from the emblem (with permission!!)</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">The sash is double sided so I can swap sides for different days. There are two deigns on each side, one larger on toward the top, and one at the bottom.</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;">And the collar was a mixture of vines and Elvin symbols.</span><br />

<span style="color: #990000;">Here’s my final Phoenix</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">I got the embroidery done in about 32 hours (total, not continuous time!!) and we were ready to move on to the actual dress.</span><br />
<br style="color: #990000;" />
<span style="color: #990000;">We attached the collar to the dress</span><br />

<span style="color: #990000;">and then moved on to the lovely sleeves…We had to trim them down a bit, but they worked nicely and the burgundy lining looks fabulous!! I tacked them at my elbows to give myself more breathing room and also so the lining shows more!</span><br />

<span style="color: #990000;">The little inner sleeves of gold are faux sleeves. They are like opera gloves, come up to my elbow and are elastic, so I can take them off when I get hot. They point, and have a loop that goes around my index finger to keep them straight ish.</span><br />

<span style="color: #990000;">The dress is a lace up pattern, so naturally I kept it! I punched and grommeted then used leather lace from other projects.</span><br />

<span style="color: #990000;">We took the gown in a bit at the natural waist to fit to my curves better and then hemmed it. The back was a tad short, but it turned out just fine.</span><br />

<span style="color: #0b5394;">So here I am, cast as the evil queen in Snow White, a maker of awesome costumes….and nothing to wear…</span><br />
<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">Well it’s easy to fix at least. </span><br />
<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">I was cast in the musical Snow White as the Evil Queen and asked to provide my own garb (we ended up furnishing just about everyone else’s garb too!) and all my wonderful, beautiful gowns were just too…shall we say, nice and kind?</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">I mean, can you see the evil queen decked out in Pepto-Bismol pink? Or spring green? Or robin’s egg blue?</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #0b5394;">So this of course entails me making a new costume!! *cheering*</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">I drew up the designs with two things in mind - one, I’m not an evil queen, (I make a better supervillain!) and I need as much boost as I can from the garb - and two, they had so many people try out that they double cast the show (to sell more tickets). That means there are two snow whites, two evil queens, two prince Roberts, etc, and we perform opposite each other.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">I know the other girl who was cast as the queen and we’re good friends, so I wanted to make a dress that she could wear as well. We’re about the same height and slim, so it’s only the ‘lumpy’ areas I have to worry about fitting.</span><br />
<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">So….I set down to design a costume that would go ‘boom - attention, evil queen’ as soon as I walked out on stage. This is what I came up with…</span><span style="color: #0b5394;"><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXLA6GDGYMULlizIGjlO0qoySxFHrZ5AcnzVOHm0J2-wCWKPCenMUdDMi2zDMKUJEsXt3cqM-k-lgkQxIEoJh1wc3fNXU5W5wnZIhOGUAPytcTqekGax6GKG8cWshFYRvl8OocFmz0Ybk/s1600/Fin.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXLA6GDGYMULlizIGjlO0qoySxFHrZ5AcnzVOHm0J2-wCWKPCenMUdDMi2zDMKUJEsXt3cqM-k-lgkQxIEoJh1wc3fNXU5W5wnZIhOGUAPytcTqekGax6GKG8cWshFYRvl8OocFmz0Ybk/s400/Fin.JPG" width="223" /></a><br />
<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">It’s a two-piece gown and shoulder cape. (I bought the Tiara) It’s dark because people link dark colors with evil.</span><span style="color: #0b5394;"><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5EYURVNxcXhbBgjcUNjvjhvIQyLxHW1eqVep6rw6w8NCheqhD5g7zrM-HRBpfFwNSuGlnuHlFCTkrGzbD5QqF2p9TXv9LmuLYM_eQmmOShGdth9F-iDohR-Ztjh6b905zTNVRfl5ZZX0/s1600/Pattern+orignal.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="358" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5EYURVNxcXhbBgjcUNjvjhvIQyLxHW1eqVep6rw6w8NCheqhD5g7zrM-HRBpfFwNSuGlnuHlFCTkrGzbD5QqF2p9TXv9LmuLYM_eQmmOShGdth9F-iDohR-Ztjh6b905zTNVRfl5ZZX0/s640/Pattern+orignal.JPG" width="640" /></a><br />
<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">The underdress is a dark midnight blue of sheer fabric. The body will be lined with a matching color of something that can’t be seen through. It has a scooped neck.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">The sleeves are styled similarly to a roman tunic or Arwen’s dream gown from LOTR. </span><span style="color: #0b5394;"><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg06O4tigk04jSX4Pb-7ztNlQE0DyOKY8d1lNWIeX0xzNm9T440Q0-EhnH_SVW4fKQbVinH84MIX_OxI67teNwBsrvxCjvSRd4au60h19V-GU7q0fd6Zuyi7gqjY3IFn-KRxOP0mCr0rXM/s1600/39427_1198128840840_full.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg06O4tigk04jSX4Pb-7ztNlQE0DyOKY8d1lNWIeX0xzNm9T440Q0-EhnH_SVW4fKQbVinH84MIX_OxI67teNwBsrvxCjvSRd4au60h19V-GU7q0fd6Zuyi7gqjY3IFn-KRxOP0mCr0rXM/s200/39427_1198128840840_full.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">I’ve also seen a few older period films with sleeves done this way.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;"> They are tacked at the shoulder and just above the elbow, falling freely after that.</span><span style="color: #0b5394;"></span><br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKThneb9nPyNBCuagdk3lycsgM6bRZL24vsBc3NQOXuD6yzXU59xMpEvKhvbPZTExASm5owAlcyLwoyCj7VixW8eAh3ELdnrzxF9Ix2KmKfENeIM7WLFd7Gl0Q5OWa1eQwgMmOKOpmJRs/s1600/Underdress+%286%29.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKThneb9nPyNBCuagdk3lycsgM6bRZL24vsBc3NQOXuD6yzXU59xMpEvKhvbPZTExASm5owAlcyLwoyCj7VixW8eAh3ELdnrzxF9Ix2KmKfENeIM7WLFd7Gl0Q5OWa1eQwgMmOKOpmJRs/s320/Underdress+%286%29.JPG" width="179" /> </a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">The overdress is navy or midnight blue, a shade or two lighter then the underdress. It’s basically a square cut gown, shaped only slightly at the waist. It has a puddle hem. The neckline is scooped and includes a cowl of extra material.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;"><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhicztC2ZH3shBD1nTAT9SYQ-84Ear3rHj0wi0qNUyDGmgZsZk4bBYl9UGNow-e5RtALyZnK5npvwlRLl9B2YQh-7EMtEPz4X51ESXPmVGsD9zhP1xz6mAWxtOeggmo_AAeilgAytOuEog/s1600/Overdress+%282%29.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhicztC2ZH3shBD1nTAT9SYQ-84Ear3rHj0wi0qNUyDGmgZsZk4bBYl9UGNow-e5RtALyZnK5npvwlRLl9B2YQh-7EMtEPz4X51ESXPmVGsD9zhP1xz6mAWxtOeggmo_AAeilgAytOuEog/s320/Overdress+%282%29.JPG" width="179" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;"> The overdress is stepped into or pulled over the head and fastens at the shoulders with silver disk clasps. It hangs from theses clasps.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKThneb9nPyNBCuagdk3lycsgM6bRZL24vsBc3NQOXuD6yzXU59xMpEvKhvbPZTExASm5owAlcyLwoyCj7VixW8eAh3ELdnrzxF9Ix2KmKfENeIM7WLFd7Gl0Q5OWa1eQwgMmOKOpmJRs/s1600/Underdress+%286%29.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">The cape is a long rectangle of sheer black fabric, wider then the shoulders and designed to drag and drape. It’s clasped on the shoulders. The clasps are sewn onto the overdress.</span><br />

<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<b><span style="color: #0b5394;">What’s a pattern?!</span></b><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">I used Simplify pattern 9891, dress A for the underdress. The pattern is a Lord of the Rings take off, based on Arwen’s gowns. (Chase gown, Farewell gown & Dream gown)</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">I dropped the ‘floof’ at the front of the gown and cut it a bit shorter then my ankles. Since it’s to be the underdress, I don’t want to trip on it!!</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">No other variations.</span><br />

<span style="color: #0b5394;">The overdress is based on Simplicity 2573, dress B, the overdress.</span><span style="color: #0b5394;"></span><br />

<b><span style="color: #0b5394;">To the Fabric store, me hearty!!</span></b><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">For the sleeves I wanted a sheer midnight blue martial. I found one that was fairly light and flowed fairly well.</span><span style="color: #0b5394;"></span><br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHTUH9wlOFFfxpAlv9eVUEsUUo11isSirK3ydZQXdiQ9EY7HTvTzW8IVpFxaFHv2BZHk-9Cz_B9JmqrW4TDkpTPH5v4ujy35JV0_LhmpAWHp3CDYYSyohPkh5nPavG3qE3AVu3zqtN7oM/s1600/Sleeves.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHTUH9wlOFFfxpAlv9eVUEsUUo11isSirK3ydZQXdiQ9EY7HTvTzW8IVpFxaFHv2BZHk-9Cz_B9JmqrW4TDkpTPH5v4ujy35JV0_LhmpAWHp3CDYYSyohPkh5nPavG3qE3AVu3zqtN7oM/s320/Sleeves.JPG" width="179" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">I ended up with a navy satin for the dress part of the underdress. I personally wanted to line the dress with it, but ended up just making the dress out of it. It worked just as well! </span><span style="color: #0b5394;"><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF2W9_mrTrEyGdwOWZD0OtC9FP18mKXD1hCTWcLgLqEncvTS9o7UommyGulkhMyc4vPaAUjxYZ-G8xA0n5iacEY-AOKWZeiTDiW7oyvfqgcjUKDVkIroTZN9eZN9iru3dQuLnQg8XRERg/s1600/Underdress+%25285%2529.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF2W9_mrTrEyGdwOWZD0OtC9FP18mKXD1hCTWcLgLqEncvTS9o7UommyGulkhMyc4vPaAUjxYZ-G8xA0n5iacEY-AOKWZeiTDiW7oyvfqgcjUKDVkIroTZN9eZN9iru3dQuLnQg8XRERg/s320/Underdress+%25285%2529.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">For the overdress I found a nice crepebacked satin in midnight blue. It feels very nice and I think it will hang well.</span><br />
<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">I got a sheer black material for the cape.</span><br />
<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<b><span style="color: #0b5394;">Hi-ho, hi-ho, it’s off to sew we go!!</span></b><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">My mom helped me a lot with this dress since it had to be done on a deadline.</span><br />
<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">THANK YOU MOMMY!</span><br />
<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">We started with the underdress and cutting it out. We kept the length of the original pattern, without adding the extensions because I don’t want to be tripping over it.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">From there we sewed up the dress which was very simple and surged the seems, then fiddled with the sleeves for a while.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">The sleeves were… interesting to say the least! To make a long story short, be sure you never end up sewing them in upside down! </span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">We did get them in correctly after about three tries, and got them tacked in the right place. They’re a lot of fun, but were a lot harder to do then we had anticipated!! (oh well…more to go on next time!)</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">The hem ended up coming up to about mid calf on me, which was ok since it is the underdress and I really don’t want more then one layer of material around my feet anyway.</span><br />
<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">The finished underdress looks about what I wanted it to be, so I am pleased!</span><br />

<br style="color: #0b5394;" />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">The overdress….</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">The pattern is a really nice dress in itself. I have a court dress made of it.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">The bodice is supposed to be lined and have interfacing. We dropped the interfacing and cut the bodice a bit narrower to leave the sides more open and hopefully prevent the material from gapping as wide over my chest area.</span><br />
<span style="color: #0b5394;">The skirt is cut at two pieces with little additions on the bottom sides to widen it out. We cut it normally.</span><br />

<span style="color: #0b5394;">We took tucks in the front of the bodice to get it to form fit a bit more- worked really well.

<span style="color: #0b5394;">My original design calls for disk clasps at the shoulders. I couldn’t find any on short notice (and didn‘t have any on hand L), so I went with smaller clasps. I sewed them on the shoulders (they look sweet!!)</span><br />

<span style="color: #0b5394;">We hemmed it to be a little shorter in the front without much of a train (due to the fact this is a musical, and we evil queens have a solo song AND DANCE)</span><br />

<span style="color: purple;">I’ll be honest - the battle dress wasn’t instant heart stopping, jaw dropping, oh-my-word-gotta-have-that-dress-dress the first time I saw it. </span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">But the more I looked at that pretty velvet and silk combination, the more I studied the way the triple set of sleeves worked, the more I watched that split skirt move, the more I researched and found out about the cut scenes in LORT, I fell in love. Head over heals. My boyfriend is jealous.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">So the answer was simple - it’s gotta be made! </span></div>

<span style="color: purple;">The answer was simple. The process, eh, not so much.</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">I began with serious research - and I mean research…butt loads of it! I googled Arwen’s battle dress (also try battle outfit) a billion times, followed links and collected pictures. A LOT of pictures!!</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">Allycatscratch.com was AMAZING for all their work!! Thank you guys soo much!! :D</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">I read and reread their breakdown on the battle dress, then started analyzing my own collection of pictures…</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP1Oyd9rHhA9dQUNcDlhXXUhxl7TX6Cm4je-JrSl2ECwFLDI8JwVgUMIN9ypBxwOcHXXqGNHD3o41lkKpzYvvIxJi_QuNqrS2DgZPKaHZ14DSwmg3rTyrG4bo_ZNkQHoGiiS1qhlAJouE/s1600/Movi_Lord_Dele0044.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="294" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP1Oyd9rHhA9dQUNcDlhXXUhxl7TX6Cm4je-JrSl2ECwFLDI8JwVgUMIN9ypBxwOcHXXqGNHD3o41lkKpzYvvIxJi_QuNqrS2DgZPKaHZ14DSwmg3rTyrG4bo_ZNkQHoGiiS1qhlAJouE/s640/Movi_Lord_Dele0044.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
<span style="color: purple;">Arwen’s battle dress is worn in the cut scenes from LORT, TTT, where Arwen was supposed to go to Helms Deep with Haldir, and fight in the battle there. The dress had to be designed with freedom of movement in mind, as well as flattery of figure (Who would want Arwen to look bad??), also keeping in mind this is Middle Earth, and an elvish design. Also, I’ve noticed the costume depart. for LOTR often uses very similar patterns and stitch designs on the costumes.</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">Arwen’s battle dress, like most of her dresses, is two parts - an underdress and an overdress, or in this case, what we called a ‘coat’ and a belt. Liv also wears maroon or plum colored breaches or leggings and either dark brown or black boots. It seems logical that she might wear the same boots as in the chase sequence.</span><br />

<span style="color: purple;">these are a replica of her boots.</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">The underdress appears to be a silk or light woven material. The color varies in the photos, but it appears to be a dusty rose or pinkish purple. Some photos it almost looks like a very light lavender.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">It has two sets of sleeves - an tight, inner sleeve and a over sleeve which is a petal shape. The over sleeve is lined with a deep lavender color that is embroidered in gold, complementing not contrasting.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx52T-ZVl4Jbg3xslhoRnwraioi__WT9jDLxlso2WDJab8KGXd7hpH0UNWJ1sqUejpvWWaTgQLFUxOcDKYnXI8-vwxbrNR8djWG9omBv3riszJgborWxnVLdvgA5cE-O4_1Xh3zScg0eA/s1600/arwen_battle+-+Copy.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx52T-ZVl4Jbg3xslhoRnwraioi__WT9jDLxlso2WDJab8KGXd7hpH0UNWJ1sqUejpvWWaTgQLFUxOcDKYnXI8-vwxbrNR8djWG9omBv3riszJgborWxnVLdvgA5cE-O4_1Xh3zScg0eA/s640/arwen_battle+-+Copy.jpg" width="586" /></a><br />
<span style="color: purple;">The inner sleeve will be covered by vambraces, which according to the original storyline would have been of Rohrim design, as they were barrowed at Helms Deep. I have vambraces from my Legolas Garb (See separate blog), so I won’t be making those. The sleeve reaches about to mid palm when the arm is down. It’s not extremely tight.</span><br />

<span style="color: purple;">The over sleeve is very interesting. It is a petal sleeve. The sew seam is along the top of the arm, down to a few inches above the elbow. It then falls gracefully into a rounded petal shape. The ‘petal’ is lined with the completing violet silk, and embroidered in gold. I took a good long look at the patterns on it, and it’s mainly flowers and leaves. A few things closely resembling butterflies. My sleeves will have a mixture of flowers, dragonflies, and vineythings.</span><br />

<span style="color: purple;">The underdress itself flows nicely under the coat, and seems to be a lighter material. It’s split front and back for ease of movement (and it really does work!) like the Chase dress.</span><br />

<span style="color: purple;">Chase Dress ` Battle Dress</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">See the similarities??</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;"> I don’t know if it splits in the front or back to get into it. Mine will be entered by the back. It’s probably shaped around the waist, since most of Arwen’s dresses and underdresses are. The skirt appears to be fairly full. It ends a few inches above the top of the boots and does not appear to be shaped. Mine will end about at my ankles. </span><br />
<span style="color: purple;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifYWSkqA04iS09nuaJaJ3oQSPMUyk4BlSWiXUvz6Msgj5b7AmWteAWRAv2gBRY41d-iXAem6XF2WRqu61NrVYRsBD9OboTwUINg6AdB_h9cc9Kc0o1YBW77xw_T3b35JyuN71FI12ktTU/s1600/battle10+-+Copy.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifYWSkqA04iS09nuaJaJ3oQSPMUyk4BlSWiXUvz6Msgj5b7AmWteAWRAv2gBRY41d-iXAem6XF2WRqu61NrVYRsBD9OboTwUINg6AdB_h9cc9Kc0o1YBW77xw_T3b35JyuN71FI12ktTU/s320/battle10+-+Copy.jpg" width="257" /></a><br />
<span style="color: purple;">The overdress, or ‘Coat’ as we call it, is clearly made of a deep burgundy velvet. It flows beautifully, falls wonderfully and looks awesome. It think it really sells the whole outfit.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">It falls to a few inches above her ankles so that the underdress shows, and the hem is shaped. It’s definitely longer on the sides, and rounded in the front and back.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">The front is open, but buttoned shut at the top, from about the natural waist to the neck seam. It falls open the rest of the way. The back is split a few inches above where the underdress is split.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;"></span><br style="color: purple;" />

<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">The buttons are small, rectangle and definitely gold.</span><br />

<span style="color: purple;">The loops and buttons are sewn into the front seam, over small flaps. These flaps (one is thinner then the other) lay flat on the chest under the buttons, giving the illusion that the fabric meets perfectly in the middle.</span><span style="color: purple;"><br /></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2LF5xGVvfy9oAnxfwhq56rwLomYKRxqOGqacPnMyW6eXrTpNElQHqoR_shEj8fW_Tc5hJbPLwHTqfBBrChkzl4dd4Lt3z5WQWube4WOjVy9-OiqI0sY4cFHm44nSl2b_v6EkPA0X7OtI/s1600/Movi_Lord_Dele0000.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2LF5xGVvfy9oAnxfwhq56rwLomYKRxqOGqacPnMyW6eXrTpNElQHqoR_shEj8fW_Tc5hJbPLwHTqfBBrChkzl4dd4Lt3z5WQWube4WOjVy9-OiqI0sY4cFHm44nSl2b_v6EkPA0X7OtI/s640/Movi_Lord_Dele0000.jpg" width="506" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimOk8Ksio5uT6NbV6ZFPCBQTlpHEToywa9HgpBP5VqYx0Wukx6DpAemChL2xjOGmbGO4Mkr7Q0BQAcoKxYDt2C56VutqG-TCaFMgMtmusyH96LeEIqJXn04e1uFEcS3knl94MZ73-PPqs/s1600/BattleFrontButtons_JoB.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimOk8Ksio5uT6NbV6ZFPCBQTlpHEToywa9HgpBP5VqYx0Wukx6DpAemChL2xjOGmbGO4Mkr7Q0BQAcoKxYDt2C56VutqG-TCaFMgMtmusyH96LeEIqJXn04e1uFEcS3knl94MZ73-PPqs/s200/BattleFrontButtons_JoB.jpg" width="121" /></a><br />
<span style="color: purple;">The arm holes are a bit bigger due to necessary movements, and the fact you have two sleeves to get through there. The sleeves are actually NOT sewn into the arm holes.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;"></span><br style="color: purple;" />

<span style="color: purple;">The sleeves are long, and fall to about mid or upper calf. They are petal shaped, and sewn into the neck seem. They fall over the shoulder and down the back and are tacked to stay.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">The collar stand up, is self lined or piped - I’m not sure which because the pictures are all blurry or too far away - and is sewn into the shoulders.</span><br />

<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">So the search begins… TO FIND THE PATERN</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">(Perhaps I should call it a quest ;)</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">It started with a pattern. Obviously, I couldn’t really ask anyone who’d seen it about the dress, so I did the best I could….actually, I’m the type who’s all for figuring out the pattern in your head and then just doing it (it usually works!)..but my mom was the voice of reason and counseled for a pattern.</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">For the underdress, I used Butterick pattern B4827 for the dress and first set of sleeves (under sleeves). </span><br />
<span style="color: purple;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmkwc_9pVTRYTSsRGIMVQt0J6BeuCr-Dnldzf9kgUEAHfJrd-9Yv46BwpFaS7uv0A9o1ENSxOVpG0VS5Fzs-IVXALTO1gu38_RW_xtPYbHnefLD4O3IYtZMtsfg65_MVo5M8quf4Ynm-c/s1600/Underdress+%287%29.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmkwc_9pVTRYTSsRGIMVQt0J6BeuCr-Dnldzf9kgUEAHfJrd-9Yv46BwpFaS7uv0A9o1ENSxOVpG0VS5Fzs-IVXALTO1gu38_RW_xtPYbHnefLD4O3IYtZMtsfg65_MVo5M8quf4Ynm-c/s200/Underdress+%287%29.JPG" width="111" /></a><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">The next set of sleeves (the over sleeves) presented a problem…To have a sew seam on top and a nice petal shape, big enough to fit over the under sleeve, able to fit in the arm hole, and to have it all be one piece!</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">My mom and I cobbled together a sleeve out of two different patterns and some improv work.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">We used to top of Butterick pattern B4571 sleeve (it’s a three piece sleeve so beware!) to form the actual part of the sleeve we needed to fit the arm hole of the B4827 pattern. We then attached Simplicity pattern 9887 sleeve to it. It’s a huge sleeve, and we just used part of it to get the sleeve shaped roughly correct. I then ended up shaping the sleeve by hand, and we used the first sleeve we cut out as a pattern to cut the rest.</span><br />

<span style="color: purple;">For the Coat, I used Butterick pattern B4954 for the shape and general pattern of the coat. I reused Butterick pattern B4827, but only for length. For the sleeves I used Simplicity pattern 2573. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: purple;">And then it was on to the fabric store!!</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">FINDING THE Material </span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">Allycatscratch reported the Battle dress to be made out of velvet for the overdress and silk for the underdress. I agree, but after looking at silk for a while, I decided I wanted something more substantial yet still light for my dress. </span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">I ended up with a beautiful rose colored light weave material that’s absolutely gorgeous. It comes out really pink on camera, but it’s really a nice color for the underdress. It floats well and yet is hardier then silk.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">For the lining of the over sleeve, I went with a lovely satin of violet. It matched my other material well and was easy to sew on for embroidering. Arwen’s dress sleeves appear to be made out of the same material as her underdress, but I like mine.</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">But when it came to the coat, I had my heart set on velvet. It had to be velvet - burgundy velvet. Its really a gorgeous color (Padme’s battle dress from Episode I is the same color), and I am in LOVE with the feel and flow of velvet…so velvet it was, and burgundy.</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">So now I have my material, and I am</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">READY SET GO!</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">The undersdress</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">Cutting out the underdress came first. It fairly easy. The B4827 pattern is a really nice pattern (Only don’t take up the bust area before putting in the sleeves!) and my mom and I had made several dresses from it before. We pinned the pattern up to me and had to shorten it somewhat and take off the train. We also made it not quite as full as normal.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: purple;">That was simple to cut out, and went quick. B4827 is designed to have lacing, and I wanted to have the dress lace up the back, but my mom pointed out that it might be uncomfortable under the coat, so we opted for a zipper, and therefore we didn’t have to cut out a few pieces for the dress, which made it simpler. </span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">The hard part came when we cut out the over sleeve. As mentioned, we cobbled together something, and then had to improv the rest. It did turn out very, very nice, but it was messy at first since didn’t quite know what we were doing… :P The shape ended up looking something like the Millennium Falcon!</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">We cut the lining at the same time, and I took those pieces and started embroidering.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCBDktJrwRVpkpbtzjXle8EU_w73Cb8f0OOyy_O4LK_8pEonYnrY5uKhmIOfRN9jCOT2iGKbH2XvqJ8hhQINRWooTE_0_vuH_bZbB32IAU-wduvq6PsFqyaYKDo_nHRth0sVImpa9zOvo/s1600/Sleeve+Linning+%2829%29.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCBDktJrwRVpkpbtzjXle8EU_w73Cb8f0OOyy_O4LK_8pEonYnrY5uKhmIOfRN9jCOT2iGKbH2XvqJ8hhQINRWooTE_0_vuH_bZbB32IAU-wduvq6PsFqyaYKDo_nHRth0sVImpa9zOvo/s320/Sleeve+Linning+%2829%29.JPG" width="179" /></a><br />
<span style="color: purple;">It took me 42 hours to embroider the lining. Yes, granted, I get very particular about how to do something, but still… :P They look awesome though, and I don’t regret it.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">I drew patterns before hand, but mostly ended up free handing with my embroidery.</span><br />

<span style="color: purple;">When I did get those done, I was finally ready to sew on my dress! </span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">It was pretty easy to sew, and went fairly quickly. The back of the pattern is two pieces, so it was easy to just leave the back split in as I sewed it. I put in the zipper and then mom came to help me with the sleeves..</span><br />

<span style="color: purple;">The first set of sleeves were nice and easy. I hemmed them up and then sewed the lining to the outside of the over sleeves and turned it. Mom pressed them for me. Thank you Mommy!! :) That was the easy part.</span><br />

<span style="color: purple;">My brother didn’t think they made such great hats apparently…</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">Mom pinned up the sleeves to me and we proceeded to play with the over sleeves until we got then to overlap and slip the way I wanted them to (we didn‘t quite have enough fabric, so be sure to cut the outside of the over sleeve just a little bit wider). She pinned them and we sewed them up, then basted the three layers of material together and sewed them into the arm hole.</span><br />

<span style="color: purple;">It’s a little tight, but I think that’s due to the three layers in the seam, and it doesn’t inhibit my mobility very much. I wouldn’t recommend playing base ball, but fighting orcs? Heck, yeah!</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">After we got the sleeves in, I put the dress on and mom played with the hem for a while to get it even. It was surprisingly even to begin with, and we were please because we had shortened it from the original pattern.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">Once she got it even, we split the front. The split goes about five inches below my crotch. The split in the back is about five inches below my butt (I really don’t think that needs to be shown!) It’s about even, actually, maybe a inch or so higher in the front.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">The split in the front got a little wide because we didn’t have any extra material to work with there, but it’s not more then an inch wide at the very most, so I’m happy. And I’m not really sure what we could have done to fix that anyhow. The back was nice because it was two pieces, so we already had some overlap.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">We hemmed that up and voila! I have an underdress!! :)</span><br />

<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">The Coat</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">The coat was very difficult. My mom again joined me for this one, and we ended up putting three patterns together again!</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">Upon reflection, we might have found a better pattern if we REALLY looked, but we had Butterick pattern B4954 and it fit well for the splits and buttons and collar. It’s a Victorian outfit and really beautiful in itself (I’ve made it).</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">We cut the collar a bit shorter around and didn’t use the sleeves. We also cut the front down because the pattern overlaps and I didn’t want that. We cut the front straight down.</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">The original pattern has a ‘butt flap’ thing, which looks really cool, but we didn’t want for this coat, so we cut the back straight down.</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">The sides we followed and flared as in the original pattern. REPEAT! The only part of the coat that flares IS THE SIDE PIECES!!</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">Because the original coat in B4954 ends at about mid thigh, we ’reused’ Butterick pattern B4827 since the two are very similar, (they don’t match exactly) but only for length. We laid it down on top of the 4954 pattern and then cut the fabric to length and removed it.</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">For the front lining flap things for the buttons, we used the little bit of the front that we had cut off and cut one double wide for the longer flap and one normal for the smaller flap. It’s about two inches wide at most.</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">For the sleeves we used Simplicity pattern 2573. It’s a very cool pattern and for reference, we used the bottom part of the sleeves on dress A, I believe. It’s a huge sleeve, and in order to make it the right size, we cut the pattern in half and cut the sleeve on a fold. I ended up with a beautiful rounded shape like I wanted, but with out being HUGE! </span><br />
<span style="color: purple;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYniLgkkp-vZhelWLPsspSkK5tNPvweZ7g-TP7C_r1CEC3DLeaFWb1q7jP0YG-kvc0p93VMJ5PMcp93rHIN1VKWr53N9T8XSUKE49pnDeTSMCyOTJvNVp37p-Cr84KmFniFoyFGboDiJI/s1600/Coat+%286%29.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYniLgkkp-vZhelWLPsspSkK5tNPvweZ7g-TP7C_r1CEC3DLeaFWb1q7jP0YG-kvc0p93VMJ5PMcp93rHIN1VKWr53N9T8XSUKE49pnDeTSMCyOTJvNVp37p-Cr84KmFniFoyFGboDiJI/s320/Coat+%286%29.JPG" width="179" /></a><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">Once we had the cutting (and hair pulling!) out of the way, I sat down and had to think about sewing it all together. Unfortunately, I can only go so far until I find the right buttons. </span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">For now, I sewed up sides, front and back of the coat. The ‘flaps’ in front, the sleeves and collar all have to wait for those buttons…. </span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">So it was off to the store again! Sure, I knew exactly what I wanted. Does that mean they have it? Nope!</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">Arwen’s coat had golden buttons, approx. ¾ of an inch long, and they are rectangular. All the buttons I could find were way to long. I don’t want any thing over an inch maximum, or it will totally overwhelm the front of my coat. I also have to find the right color gold to go with my sleeve embroidery (who knew there were so many shades of gold?!)</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">After a long an arduous adventure, I finally found the right ‘buttons’. They’re bead spacers, I found them in the jewelry isle. They are the right size, shape, color and even have a design on them that looks elvish or leafish.</span><br />

<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">But attaching them to the coat? That’s an adventure in and of itself!</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">The original design probably was something like loops and buttons. I’m not entirely sure because the pictures are not clear enough to tell. </span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">We decided try loops, but after carefully considering and mocking up a button, my mom and I decided …</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">Not to use loops.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">They’re just to bulky for the ‘buttons’ I have, and weren’t working. Button holes were out too, because my machine can’t sew button holes on velvet. Blick. </span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">So after a long time of considering, we decided to use hook and eyes on the flaps, and have the buttons on the top for show only. (I suggested magnets during out brainstorming and we decided the fashion world wasn’t quite ready for that yet. He he)</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">So now I have my buttons and my way of closing my coat…and now we get to sew in the collar (my mom really wanted to help with this part - how awesome!!) </span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">We pined the sleeves into the neck seem, and adjusted them to fall correctly. They meet in the back, and fall across my shoulders. It’s really pretty cool - and FUN to wear!! Then we pinned the collar in over them and I tried it on again (I’m pretty sure the collar turned vampire at that point! Ouch!!)</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">It took us a bit to adjust get the sleeves to fall right with the collar in place. We based it, then I tried it on again to be sure nothing had moved. Then sewed it up.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">And it looks really nice!</span><br />

<span style="color: purple;">After we got eh collar in, we tried to sew on the hook and eyes…discovering to our horror, it just wouldn’t work with hook and eyes…so we brainstormed again…</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">And moved on to the next thing.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">Snap tape!</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR1GlhPa6N6O6dYvfJv3iLw0pS6z7H5bPgWNsi12IAKFtDdCYCjenj0d8BWJ_X1G8UO7CHRdjJlDEyuJNaEsFth9Ae5uN8LfsX230O27qhYVQ9b_gtcFMi7tTOb-SwDntoExX5Snwuig8/s1600/Coat+%2819%29.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR1GlhPa6N6O6dYvfJv3iLw0pS6z7H5bPgWNsi12IAKFtDdCYCjenj0d8BWJ_X1G8UO7CHRdjJlDEyuJNaEsFth9Ae5uN8LfsX230O27qhYVQ9b_gtcFMi7tTOb-SwDntoExX5Snwuig8/s200/Coat+%2819%29.JPG" width="111" /></a><br />
<span style="color: purple;">I picked up a yard of black snap tape and we sewed that on. It actually worked!! (YAE!) and we sewed on the buttons, about two thirds of an inch apart. It looks REALY nice.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">We ended up putting the snap tape all the way down the flaps on the front of the coat and then sewing the ‘buttons’ on over top of that. They were tricky as they had to be sewn so as to look like they actually fitted across both flaps.</span><br />

<span style="color: purple;">You can see the difference in lighting in these shots. Also, you’ll note you can see the snap tape from the one on the right and how that works.</span><br />
<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">We took the sides in a bit to fit my shape better and did the belt</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">I used the belt from the buttrick 4827 pattern (underdress). It was a bit long for me, but that was easy to fix.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">I use bright gold leaf toggles for the buckle. An actual buckle would be nicer, but I could find one to fit my taste…. </span><br />

<br style="color: purple;" />
<span style="color: purple;">The hem was a bit hard. My mom helped me again, because it’s hard to see where to hem something to when you’re wearing it!!</span><br />
<span style="color: purple;">The hem is rounded, longer on the sides. The underdress shows all the way around. (helps keep the martial clean and works better for running or spinning suddenly)</span><br />

<span style="color: #7f6000;">Legolas uses two bows and two quivers for the movies. Similarly, he has two sets of arrows. Which means if you are trying to reconstruct his garb - including weapons - you will have to choose which set will work better for you. They are quite different.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">Both bows appear to be recurve bows. He carries them over his shoulder (slid through the quiver straps) quite often.</span><span style="color: #7f6000;"></span><br />

<span style="color: #7f6000;">His long knives are both attached to the quiver and in separate sheaths.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">He obviously has to reach very deliberately for them to draw them.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;"></span><br style="color: #7f6000;" />

<br style="color: #7f6000;" />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">He usually wears his quiver pointing over his right shoulder, with the clasp on the left side. I have noticed a few shots in Fangorn and Rohan when he wears it on the other side. (My guess is the continuity person missed him, the shots were reversed, or Orlando hadn’t figured out how to wear it yet when those shots were filmed)</span><br />

<span style="color: #7f6000;">The first bow of Legolas is only used in the Fellowship of the Ring, and only for about half the film. It’s the bow he has when he rides into Rivendell, kills the cave ogre, and threatens to shoot Haldir with in Lorien. </span><br />

<span style="color: #7f6000;">This bow is of dark wood, probably stained, inlayed with gold, caped on both ends with elvish designed in gold. </span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">The gold inlay is shaped like a leafy vine.</span><br />

<span style="color: #7f6000;">His first quiver</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">Legolas’s first quiver is black, hard, shaped leather. It’s flat on the bottom, shaped somewhat like a cone. The straps are tan leather, threaded through golden (I’ll call them loops) things. The bottom and top are encased in gold which has a leafy design. The top is uneven, lower on the left side then the right.</span><br />

<br style="color: #7f6000;" />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">His first set of Arrows</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">These arrows are black or dark brown shafted with two golden yellow fletches and one black. They are bound to the shaft with black cord wrapped around and tied. The tips are dark metal.</span><br />

<br style="color: #7f6000;" />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">The Peacock Quiver</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">Legolas’s second quiver. </span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">It’s tan leather, shaped in sort of an oval. It appears to bow out in the middle, but it’s quite possible that’s an illusion.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">It has gold around the lip of the quiver and at the base.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">The gold overlay is two intertwined peacocks, thus the quiver’s name.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKn-V2zn5N7nOO7xCRwByp5-ItyeIxY1bIFjtJ3kFQM7mwr6YgLNvgOMi2ouuCNnfyhcKB6qY0fTBbAr1vorQG16XSj9FhISQFdhdRgxUj8FMsKh69pOPLSKSQSHkNRIQBR65XG1u6LiE/s1600/Quiver+%283%29.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKn-V2zn5N7nOO7xCRwByp5-ItyeIxY1bIFjtJ3kFQM7mwr6YgLNvgOMi2ouuCNnfyhcKB6qY0fTBbAr1vorQG16XSj9FhISQFdhdRgxUj8FMsKh69pOPLSKSQSHkNRIQBR65XG1u6LiE/s400/Quiver+%283%29.JPG" width="300" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">The knives are in their own separate ‘case’. They are definitely strapped together and in their own sheaths behind and to the side of the quiver. It looks as if they may have been intended to be strapped to the quiver as they are with his first one, but the strap didn’t fit. You can see the odd bulge of leather there. I don’t know what other purpose it could have served.</span><span style="color: #7f6000;"></span><br />

<span style="color: #7f6000;">His second set of arrows</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">Are green shafted (made of wood), tipped with golden leafy points that are intertwined upwards. The fletchings are all golden yellow, bound with golden cord that is clasped by two gold bands at the top and bottom of the fletch. They are quite different from his original arrows.</span><br />

<br style="color: #7f6000;" />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">The mixed up confused world of film making.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">In this world, there are such things as publicity shoots, where the actor uses what the public relations agent picks out for him to use.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">There are several posters, pictures and replicas of Legolas that were manufactured for press release in which he MIXES his first set of weapons with his second.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">He uses the first bow, the wrong quiver and the right arrows. The second bow, wrong quiver, right arrows. First bow, first quiver, second set of arrows. And so on and so forth. Be careful if you plan to reproduce his weapons - be sure you get accurate pictures.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">Most of the pictures are accurate, but labeled under the wrong film.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhQqLRDrbx1SNURxD0dbG0VIECQ65v1dmXRSVe1TLdG6UI_cHCQfJlfrp-pYYJmu6gAFrJfLiJm5JSpwzdg2MsO3sji3L6REIN9Q1GG7fKs1SB9XIuspk1X0kreMgmiJN6wzO_Y0pcJMw/s1600/legolas+1.bmp" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhQqLRDrbx1SNURxD0dbG0VIECQ65v1dmXRSVe1TLdG6UI_cHCQfJlfrp-pYYJmu6gAFrJfLiJm5JSpwzdg2MsO3sji3L6REIN9Q1GG7fKs1SB9XIuspk1X0kreMgmiJN6wzO_Y0pcJMw/s640/legolas+1.bmp" width="640" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">Here he’s using his first bow, first quiver and first arrows</span><br />
<br style="color: #7f6000;" />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">My Bow</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">I love my bow…it’s incredible. It was a surprise gift from my father, and I freely confess, I obsess over it. I won’t let other people hold it, use it, or even let it rest on the ground…yeah, that’s how much it means to me. I’ve even named it.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">I use it for archery a lot, and it’s a very, very nice long bow. It’s not a recurve, but I can’t handle those. </span><br />

<span style="color: #7f6000;">It was easier for me to make the second set of arrows for some reason (I don’t remember why anymore) so that’s why they don’t match the rest of my garb.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">I gathered all of the bent or busted arrows we had around the garage and started painting. I used green acrylic paint and painted each arrow separately about three times to get the right shade (and so the camo would stop showing through!)</span><br />

<span style="color: #7f6000;"></span><span style="color: #7f6000;">I painted the fleches with gold (which took about five coats each) and for the cording accents. I also painted the tips of the arrows gold and gave them vine designs.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">I do NOT have any tips on my arrows for safety reasons, and I rarely take pictures with a loaded bow pointed directly at the camera</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;"></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh96updjkL6vGlLLekCShMuklXdSjXVpJ9U_ot-hzUXfzzkN8qZ7YfzMsxUCqGrnAyhtxeaa964CMEqI9yYXFzKBeEVgZJYfSrjOIp1FtKd6YU9zY3QYv6DhAVV46nyky8GpI8A9AZhZr0/s1600/Arrows.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh96updjkL6vGlLLekCShMuklXdSjXVpJ9U_ot-hzUXfzzkN8qZ7YfzMsxUCqGrnAyhtxeaa964CMEqI9yYXFzKBeEVgZJYfSrjOIp1FtKd6YU9zY3QYv6DhAVV46nyky8GpI8A9AZhZr0/s320/Arrows.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">My knives were a present and came with the sheaths.</span><br />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">I collect LOTR swords, and recommend United Cutlery for any and all replicas. They do an exceptionally nice job on Legolas’s long knives, but the sheaths are separate and costly.</span><br />
<br style="color: #7f6000;" />
<span style="color: #7f6000;">And so, here I am with my bow, quiver and arrows in my Legolas garb!!</span><br />

Question: What’s your favorite film?<br />
Answer: Lord of the Rings.<br />
<br />
Question: Who’s your favorite Character?<br />
Answer: Legolas, Arwen and Pippin. In that order.<br />
<br />
Question: Why?<br />
Answer: Read the books.<br />
<br />
I am a hard core LOTR fan. I have been ever since I read the books. (And I am proud of it!!) The films are fantastic and I love them…but the books are even more awesome. That being said, I have to say I love Legolas on screen. Orlando Bloom did an amazing job with the part.<br />

So…what else was there to do but make a Legolas costume?? <br />
<br />
COSTUME….ING<br />
Legolas wears the same garb for most of the film(s), adding - and in a few cases - subtracting from the basic garb. I did tons of research before I did this costume, but after three years (wow, that seems like a long time!!) I’ve gotten even more resources and realized a few things I missed the first time around. So for you, I will add them in. <br />
Most of it’s thanks to a life-size cardboard Legolas a friend gave me. (Apparently she was tired of being freaked out in the middle of the night) so all’s well that ends well! <br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQraQLAVa0h8M18Rlpmh_8D7jbY9D6e5AAanp6SxHXLkAVrJZVovpMGXIbyAMuW-IhtpqFt1QfyRcv3wr6nuGNMyQkvDh31ZJjj-WtVbkSZl_iJFMpHV5HuLOoi0n3CFYLiimngsuUfEQ/s1600/IMG_5101.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQraQLAVa0h8M18Rlpmh_8D7jbY9D6e5AAanp6SxHXLkAVrJZVovpMGXIbyAMuW-IhtpqFt1QfyRcv3wr6nuGNMyQkvDh31ZJjj-WtVbkSZl_iJFMpHV5HuLOoi0n3CFYLiimngsuUfEQ/s320/IMG_5101.JPG" width="179" /></a><br />
No, he didn’t beat me up.<br />
This is my Jurassic Park costume…with Life-size Legolas cuz that’s how I roll!! Aha ha!<br />
<br />
Legolas has two basic parts to his garb.<br />
He wears a silver-blue tunic that looks like a light woven material or maybe silk. It comes about to mid thigh and has long sleeves.<br />
The sleeves are laced up the underside, and I would venture to guess the sides are laced also, however that might be terribly uncomfortable.<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXxX78KR3pO-TF-qyB9X3i-OxfZdJEuq8XgLklHwEFqc-kE69yx41fk6Dhx5PruE1rCeuM0jkHpKGFKnZShwxlKDIT-lDaboim61ceemWhanIH_qSyy2ROoaeW83hlFAlW8015iJE2Xdo/s1600/legolas+1.bmp" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXxX78KR3pO-TF-qyB9X3i-OxfZdJEuq8XgLklHwEFqc-kE69yx41fk6Dhx5PruE1rCeuM0jkHpKGFKnZShwxlKDIT-lDaboim61ceemWhanIH_qSyy2ROoaeW83hlFAlW8015iJE2Xdo/s320/legolas+1.bmp" width="320" /></a><br />
The sleeves end just above his wrist and are not loose but not extremely baggy when his arms are down. When he puts his arms up (like to shoot) the sleeves are tight. This is probably due to the lacing on the underside. The cuffs are wide, not tight.<br />
There is silver embroidery (probably similar to the embroidery on his jerkin) over the collar and chest of his tunic.<br />
The collar stands up (about three inches I’d say, as does the collar of the jerkin) and the front it fastened together by two silver ‘leafy’ clasps, about three or four inches apart.<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeAricf8nuDacQVoj11JMRQk_FwfHCbAGwv6HuGUiZpsfdgznrgDEf2TImA9ObWO1uJc-Ac_qu4Kn5bm3qtHCP3Ep2GLitBrDyIYUGKtDyI48OkXN5Wn77cPdo1tOpMUSCHpayw30upek/s1600/lotr.6.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeAricf8nuDacQVoj11JMRQk_FwfHCbAGwv6HuGUiZpsfdgznrgDEf2TImA9ObWO1uJc-Ac_qu4Kn5bm3qtHCP3Ep2GLitBrDyIYUGKtDyI48OkXN5Wn77cPdo1tOpMUSCHpayw30upek/s640/lotr.6.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
The overtunic or jerkin is of two-tone (possibly) suede or micro suede.<br />
The colors are a dark almost olive green for the top and a lighter grass green for the bottom.<br />
The jerkin is split on the sides to about three inches under his armpit. It laces up. The front it split from the bottom of the jerkin to the waist, and from the neckline about six inches down.<br />
It has a collar that comes up over the collar of the tunic. It does not touch his neck at any point. In other words, it is a little shorter then the tunic collar. <br />
The sleeves of the jerkin are leaf shaped and wrapped around each other. They are long and come to the elbow. The shoulder seem sits off his shoulder, similar to peasant shirt seems.<br />
The ‘top’ of the jerkin seems to be sewn on. It is comes down in the front to the waist and is rounded. It covers most of his chest. In the back it’s cut straight across at the shoulders.<br />
This top part disappears in some of the shots at Helm’s Deep when Legolas wears the Rohan armor.<br />
I’d guess the costume depart took it off or made him a separate jerkin for that part.<br />
It is possible that the top of the jerkin is separate from the rest, but seems unlikely, since that would be a bit of a cumbrance to Orlando.<br />
The top is embroidered with silver thread around the chest, collar and sleeves. Typical male elvish design, it looks to mostly be made up of lines winding together.<br />

<br />
Legolas wears leggings of a mossy green (they almost look velvet) They are obviously fitted, but not tights. They seem to be seemed on both sides.<br />
His boots are green, and go to someone else for the boots, sorry! I bough mine.<br />
<br />

(original costume!! )<br />
<br />
Legolas’s vambraces are a dark brown (we’re seen this leather before on the roharim) and petal shaped. They are inlayed with gold elvish designs. They wrap his arm and fasten with leather straps. Similar to how many leather pouches fasten with a leather loop around a metal peg or button.<br />

<br />
In Lothlorian he removes his jerkin and wears his tunic alone. I haven’t studied the coronation scene in ROTK, but I would guess he wears it here as well.<br />
He wears two capes for the films.<br />
<br />
I will have a separate blog for his bows, quivers and arrows…<br />
<br />
I will also have a separate blog for Legolas's capes... <br />
<br />
FABRIC!!!<br />
Yae! My favorite part of the whole process (besides wearing!)<br />
<br />
For the tunic, I was very blessed to find a silvery blue woven material just perfect for Legolas on the clearance rack…(SCORE!?) it’s some sort of décor fabric, I’m not sure what kind. It’s very light and pretty and I love it to death.<br />
<br />
For the jerkin, I went with micro suede in two colors, also found in the décor fabric section of the store. They have a elvish feel to them, and look amazing.<br />
They look authentic too. That’s always a plus..<br />
<br />
My vambraces are Suede leather, about a 1/16 of an inc thick. They are black.<br />
<br />
I will use my own leggings and I have already bought my boots.<br />
<br />
PATTERN?!<br />
Ok, we should probably use one…<br />
<br />
Yeah, I’m not fond of patterns.<br />
I used the Simplicity pattern 4924, which is already lord of the ring ish. It includes a ‘Legolas’ pattern, a ‘Theoden’ pattern and a ‘Elrond’ pattern<br />
(They’re very much not exact as patterns based off films are wont to be)<br />
I did NOT use the Legolas pattern. We had made it once before and it did not turn out very well.<br />

<b>The tunic…</b><br />
For the tunic I used the Elrond pattern and shortened it considerably to my mid thigh. It got shorter after hemming, so I had to tack a strip onto the bottom. So, make the tunic a little long and don’t end up with an odd seem across your legs!!<br />
<br />

Front Back<br />
<br />
I used Elrond pattern for the sleeves as well. I would suggest not using those sleeves, unless you widen them slightly to fit Orlando’s sleeves more exactly.<br />

My tunic does not have collar, though it is split.<br />

For the collar I would suggest using the one with the Elrond pattern and keeping the split, but adding leafy clasps.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>The jerkin</b><br />
Weee!! <br />
The jerkin was obviously harder, given that it’s two pieces and the sleeves are more difficult.<br />
For the jerkin I used the Theoden pattern (shortened!) since it was split in the front but not the back, as I wanted. It also has a seem on the sides, so it’s easy to hem that and put in lacing.<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTm-DQWHdTCBdDFlKz4KFeyegHOL8FIThN6xE2iYb7npE9S5-2GYodZAdGtE0Bz_uYQksd4NJsM8-nF8woc_A9xpTf0jeP7DjHaKpCNqoyHa3q7E5GHIU14YMtJjZJPYKbB7m0YS6e2xU/s1600/Jerkin+%284%29.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTm-DQWHdTCBdDFlKz4KFeyegHOL8FIThN6xE2iYb7npE9S5-2GYodZAdGtE0Bz_uYQksd4NJsM8-nF8woc_A9xpTf0jeP7DjHaKpCNqoyHa3q7E5GHIU14YMtJjZJPYKbB7m0YS6e2xU/s320/Jerkin+%284%29.JPG" width="179" /></a><br />
<br />
The collar of the Theoden pattern is done in two parts - I pasted them together and cut them as one.<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixmiyOTomuLnqnupbVJFRHcr6psQM-4ZUzuvLnsj1ki2iddsps5Rj0mUgxS8_0WmGq99urziWQA2howrLBKXSZhyW-eu1CpulnpExBK5RBeZ-L8bNEB7RztO3IexTCaqejb-QoZYvvPjA/s1600/Jerkin+%285%29.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixmiyOTomuLnqnupbVJFRHcr6psQM-4ZUzuvLnsj1ki2iddsps5Rj0mUgxS8_0WmGq99urziWQA2howrLBKXSZhyW-eu1CpulnpExBK5RBeZ-L8bNEB7RztO3IexTCaqejb-QoZYvvPjA/s320/Jerkin+%285%29.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
<br />
For the ‘top’ of the jerkin, I cut out the front the same as the ‘bottom’ (as told above), only much shorter, since it only comes to my waist.<br />
For the back, I cut it much shorter but used the same pattern.<br />
I sewed the two parts together (one on top of the other) and went onto the sleeves.<br />

Front back<br />
<br />
<b>Pretty sleeves!!</b><br />
And also frustrating!!<br />
My mom helped a lot with the sleeves. I seem to have fetish for costumes with really complicated sleeves… he he..<br />
We ended up with two different halves of sleeves shaped kinda like leaves.<br />
We overlapped them on top and seemed them together on the bottom. <br />

They turned out nice, but took a while. <br />
I believe we used the top of a dress sleeve and adapted it to our means, but I’m not sure which one anymore!<br />
<br />
<b>My vambraces</b><br />
Are my favorite part of the wholly favorite outfit!! <br />
I do love vambraces…I always have. <br />
I bought the suede and knew I wanted these things to fix me exactly…so I disregarded any pattern and did them myself.<br />
I measured my arm from just above my wrist to my elbow, then around my wrist and around my forearm. I made sure to measure it while I flexed<br />
(we have had incidences of people busting seems that way believe it or not!)<br />
I took my measurements and traced them onto my suede with chalk. I cut it out and (tried it on!!!!) used it to cut the other vambrace.<br />
I did add about an inch on the two long sides for seems.<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6zBA3Yx6ubUPd_pNka9UVeFblbKT-jmpBa-ZNV4HbcDSoPZEJYV8qrmJo3RGxtOFD7TXKmNP444UmQOqmd212TcbXGf1V2sweImMkakbBNzmqa2czNY298XRKRLJRWej5fzKUEymMN-w/s1600/Vambraces.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6zBA3Yx6ubUPd_pNka9UVeFblbKT-jmpBa-ZNV4HbcDSoPZEJYV8qrmJo3RGxtOFD7TXKmNP444UmQOqmd212TcbXGf1V2sweImMkakbBNzmqa2czNY298XRKRLJRWej5fzKUEymMN-w/s400/Vambraces.JPG" width="223" /></a><br />
I hand sewed the seems and put in my lacing. I ended up using twice as many grommets as I thought I would need due to the fact the vambraces really gapped open the first few times I wore them because I had made them so form fitting….<br />
You could use the vambrace pattern for the Legolas costume, but I had more fun my way.<br />
Although they do take more then one person to lace up….<br />
