Euphemia Cosplay Help

[kittendreamz.livejournal.com]

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!

Hi, I take commissions. (You would find me under the name "Rui" on the cosplay.com forums. There are some reviews left for me there too.)

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.
