Simplest costume ever, black tank top, blue jeans, black high heels and tie the hair back.
If we're going to get pedantic I should have longer blonder hair with bangs not a fringe. Kind of look a tad Vulcan in that photo, chanelling my inner Star Trek I guess.
A simple costume which I wore to Armageddon 2008 on the Sunday when I was judging the cosplay competition.
I purchased the boots, gloves, jeans and belt. The black top was purchased and I shortened it. I made the vest from red linen, the pattern was drafted from a standard Australian size 12 block, the buttons and button holes were hand sewn and the imaged were drawn in Adobe Illustrator and ironed onto the vest with transfer paper, fabric paint was used where necessary.
The choker was given to me by a freind many years ago.
Jill is my favourite Res.Evil girl.
The top and jumper have not been altered. The black skirt was shortened and grey trim added. The boots I convinced Dad to buy for me specifically for this outfit. I call them the "Zombie Stompers". The could be replicas of the ones she wears in the game.
I wore this costume on the Friday of e-Games '08.
Made from black chamois and fully lined with red crepe-back satin.
I dyed the frog closures myself, originally they were white.
The pockets are lined with dark plum coloured crepe satin.
I made this skirt to wear to year 12 formal. The back is black chamois and the front panel is red crepe-back satin. The two cross over pieces at the front are dark plum crepe-satin.
The top is a basic elastic fit. No zips or buttons.
This costume is very special to me, you see this was the first "cosplay" costume I made.
The shoes, gloves and tights were all purchased but everything else was made by me. Including the patterns. I wouldn't have done that but have you ever tried to look for a leohtard pattern? Near impossible to find, so this was a product of trial-and-error. Unfortunately it has never debuted at a convention.
Some kitty accessories I've thrown together over the years.
The set includes: a set of fake fur leg warmers, A headband with ears made from old bra cups, fake fur and lined with satin, and a red suede hat with black lined ears.
I made this costume for my second semester textiles project in year 11 in 2005.
The vest and skirt are crepe-backed satin in a very dark shade of blue and the red top is satin. The vest has eyelets down the centre front and a purple cord to tie it.
The hood is suede tracksuit fabric, it's very warm and so thick it didn't need lining.
The sleeves came off a top that didn't fit, I thought they were nice so I cut them off and finished each edge to wear as accessories. The skirt is made from suede with a lace under skirt. It's high at the front and drops to a point at the back, there is purple lace at the top and it fastens with two buckles.
Red and black pants made from basic black cotton fabric with red stitching on the outside. A few straps from bags and D-rings were incorporated. Other things such as handcuffs, chains or padlocks can be attached to the straps and rings on the pants.
I drew a picture and liked the outfit, so I made it.
The skirts were purchased and altered, the belts, shoes and jewellry were gifts have not been altered. The top is made from a velvet fabric with fake fur trim, the sleeves are a stretch cotton-polyester satin. The ears are fake fur with satin lining and hairclips to attach them to your head.
This was one of the first pieces of clothing I ever produced at school. I made it in year 10 textiles and wore it to the Spring Races on an excursion with the class.
It is made from velvet and lined with stretch cotton.
This is made from black chamois.
Honestly, I can't remember when I made it. It could have been in '04 or '05.
It's a basic slouch design, kind of like a berret.
I always wanted a cape but it's expensive to buy them. Managed to fit 15 people into this once.
It is made from black chamois and pink/purple satin. It sits over your shoulders and fastens with a tie at the neck. The hood is large and pointed.
This dress was my main year 12 textiles project. A lot of girls make their Valedictory dress in year 12 textiles, me included.
It is made from black chamois and fully lined with red crepe-back satin. There is a gold frog closure on the neck and it fastens at the back with an invisible zip.
