My Eowyn Refugee Costume Can't Post

Hi all! Well, I promised pics once the whole thing was complete, so here's my recreation of Eowyn's refugee costume.

Don't remember what the original looks like? Check out my Did You Ever Notice? post over on the Movie - LOTR board.

The costume consists of a cotton underdress, which I added texture and gold embroidery to, and a brown linen overdress. It took me about a month to make from start to finish. I have more details about the making of this costume over on my website: http://diannethegeek.com/eowynrefugee.html

And now, onward to pictures!

Nice costume! [In reply to] Can't Post

I particularly like the lacing on the sides of the overdress and the detail on the underdress.

Wow! I hope you get as much pleasure [In reply to] Can't Post

out of wearing it as we get from your sharing and your "Did you ever notice?" threads!

It's amazing how much work you've obviously put into it - do you take commissions? Otherwise I'm stuck putting something together myself with scotch tape and a stapler! Laugh

All the work to get the sides exactly right! You look great! And you got the colour down pat too.
Brilliant!

As good as the movie! Did you make that without a pattern?
