But I've also been dying for a 'casual sunday' costume that was comfy, and I could wear to a restaurant and not get weird looks ;) I've been looking into weaving the sweater fabric myself, but I don't think it'll make it on the list this year. Too much stuff!Verdaerahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02623257976488143439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-639743988911632694.post-55174845031775413252012-03-14T09:06:14.862-07:002012-03-14T09:06:14.862-07:00I'm hoping to do a similar thing for Dragoncon...I'm hoping to do a similar thing for Dragoncon as well. I got overheated rather badly last year after wearing an all-leather costume. So I changed into a light sundress I had and boots since it was raining. Ironically I had more pictures taken of me in that than in my costume! So I think there's some wisdom in having a River Tam dress handy. :) <br /><br />I would love to do the Reaver dress from Serenity, but goodness gracious is the pattern hard to pull off. Depending on how accurate you want to be, I've been scowering the racks of sweaters at Goodwill and there's been a veritable ton of red fluffy sweaters! Alas, I only found one with the right material and it was fitted instead of loose. Best of luck!The Lady Nerdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06695434884544757269noreply@blogger.com
