Euphemia Cosplay Help
Hello everyone,
I hope no one thinks of this as a pointless post. I actually wanted some people's help for a cosplay. This year, at a convention or two, I want to cosplay as Euphie. Most the dresses I have found on ebay though look MISERABLE, and terribly fake. One of the things I hate most in cosplay...is when something doesn't look realistic at all (or like someone spray painted a garbage bag, and called it art. DX )
Does anyone know of a GOOD cosplay site that might have her dress on it...or someone...or a group that does good commission work or seamstressing (that wouldn't charge me 1,000's @_@ I'm not rich ya know...but I'm willing to pay something decent for a good costume <3 )
Any help would be really appreciated! I already have the wig...which is BEAUTIFUL. Now...to the costume!
Thanks in advance!

you can try looking through various threads on commissioners in that forum (although c.com's doing some wonky upgrades soon, so I'm not sure if the board'll be around forever). there's a lot of talent floating around c.com, so with a little research I'm pretty sure you could find someone suitable to make your costume.

I usually spend some time with my customers, understanding what they require from the costume. At the moment, I've done two Euphemia gowns, both of which with different specifications.
http://pics.livejournal.com/tnarcheska/pic/00080504 > the first one asked for it to be done in gabardine, and in purple.
http://pics.livejournal.com/tnarcheska/pic/0009h4wz > the second one asked for it to be done in satin, and also in purple.
Depending on your requests, I have different fabrics available here. I personally would recommend using microfibre (I used the fabric in this costume: http://pics.livejournal.com/tnarcheska/pic/0008ps6f) or satin drill (used here: http://pics.livejournal.com/tnarcheska/pic/000bd02q ) for the gown though. Even if it would cost more.
ETA: You could look around my gallery here (http://pics.livejournal.com/tnarcheska/gallery/0002hy7h) for samples of past works.
