I wanted to really ground this costume; the animation colors were already a bit over the top, so I wanted to choose more muted colors. The way I try to address the costume is make something that the artist may have looked at when he drew the costume. I picked out some Purple gabardine, and some orange suede to the trim. There is a white under dress, another smaller skirt with the purple gauze and then the dark purple skirt. The larger blue jewel pieces are sculpted and cast, the buttons I just bought, but I made sure to make button holes so it looked like they were functional rather than just floating above the fabric. Since I wanted the tailoring so clean on this costume I took it to Sean who could do a much better job than me! |
