My
Lord of the Rings
and
Narnian Gown

Summary:
Since LOTR came out (well not "since" exactly, but it sounds right) I've been wanting to make a dress from there. I still dont think I'm really ready to attempt to re-create any of the things they wore, so i'm making my own. Dol Amroth isn't a place that is really in the movie, but they still have elven influences (and the elves have really cool clothing). So the first sketch that is up there (without an actual body) was something I came up with. After seeing the Chronicles of Narnia :) i've been wanting to make Susan's Coronation Gown, and since I am a poor college student, I've combined the two into one. While this is technically a dress from Dol Amroth, it happens to resemble Su's Cor Gown from Narnia.

While I haven't really worn this many places (and have pictures from them) the ones that I do have I am going to put here. Hopefully, as time goes on, I'll be able to add more places to this list.
Just me at school. I finished showing the dress to people (what I did over spring break) and because it's *so much work* to put it on, I had to take pics.
Midnight, April 3/4, Wal-Mart, Palymra PA
.... I had to.

We went (at midnight) to the Wal Mart by LVC to see the Narnia Display. What better place to wear this than here? (i mean aside from the movie .... didnt quite even start this at that time ;) )
Thanks for visiting!
