costume: river

[amezri]

Here are some photos of the first go at River' bank heist costume in Serenity.

All items by queenmaab. She did have to spray dye the fabric used for the dress as the original was too peachy/orange/pink and we also spray dyed the over vest thing. There are things I don't particularly like on it (the vest thing for starters), but I love the cut of the dress and the shirt.

I know she wasn't wearing boots in the movie, but there's no way I'm running around a con in bare feet. The boots are similar to the ones she has later on in the movie, so whatever.

Reference photos for this costume are here.













And now I are off to make a batch of Anzac biscuit for a party this afternoon :D

The vest part I'm making can still use some embellishment, but it's ready for a fitting if you have time free soon!

[amezri.livejournal.com]

Crap :\ It'll probably have to be after Shore Leave as I won't have time this week.... But I would definitely like to come over the week after to fit it so I can take it with me to DragonCon at the end of August!

Dang, I was hoping I'd done enough to have it ready for you for Shore Leave... *headdesk*

But on the bright side, this means I can work on making the embellishments really damn cool!

Yeah, it's okay :) I'd much rather have a better looking one for DragonCon where the costuming bar is higher :)

Very cool.

Where did you get those boots?

[amezri.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

Found them on Amazon via a tip I got at the Firefly costuming comm. It was one of the last three pairs the seller had!
