About this Costume
Construction Details:
Worked on this for roughly 2 months. The armor is mostly HDPE plastic, with some craft foam and Wonderflex here and there. Looooots of meticulous gluing of rhinestones, pearls and mosaic tiles! Honestly, the tiara gave me the most trouble--I could NOT come up with a design I liked and I ended up going through 3 different prototypes. There are two other panels of skirt chevrons that go on either side of the middle one, but I'm saving those (plus wings and a horn) for whenever I got an actual photo shoot of this because nooo way was I gonna walk around Otakon with all that. Also: finding the balance between "appropriately weathered" and "this looks dirty and bad" is HAAAAARD.

Dress is shantung silk and has made me want to cosplay a million more Grecian drapey things! Which is good, because things were accidentally spilled on me during Otakon and I have to remake it. Sigh.
Personal Thoughts:
I just really like rhinestones, man.
