  1. Blue Arwen Requiem Inspired Gown – Size 14. $200

Sleeve detail

  1. Lucy’s Blue Narnia gown. – size 14 – 16 $200

-          This is my replica of the gown worn by Lucy in the first Narnia movie. It comprises of two gowns. The bottom layer is made from a light blue cotton, the top gown is made in a blue chamois with cut away sleeves. 

-          The neckline is hand embroidered and the pattern taken from the original. The front keyhole detail is not open able. The buttons are sewn to keep them in place.
I wore this to the first Medieval Festival I attended.

-          The red cape was made to go with this costume and looks really nice together.







Eowyn Inspired Coat  $100
 

-          Coat made from a brown knit, but has little stretch. The bodice is lined in cotton as are the wide sleeves. The front closes with copper coloured buttons. The hem is shaped to be shorter in the front than the back. 

-          The collar, cuffs and hem are trimmed in a knitted brown ‘fur’. This was hand knitted by me, and both hand sewn and machine sewn on.

 


 

  1. Peasant garb  $50

-          One of my first medieval costumes and it not accurate, but does give the impression of peasant wear. It comprises of two layers;

-          Chemise is made with blue cotton and gathered to a bias neckband. The sleeves are set as raglan style not a T-tunic. The gown is full and is ankle length.

-          The tunic to wear over the top is made from a purple/brown tweed like fabric with arm and neck facings to help the tunic sit nicely on the torso. There are slits in the skirt to the hip to allow for movement and to show the chemise underneath when walking or dancing.

   Not sure why it went funny?

  1. Dark brown curly hair piece $40
