The just king,

You totally should! I think that kind of costume would be unique and interesting esp for halloween.

Last year I randomly had the urge to cosplay Lilliandil with a dress that I've sewn already for another costume and a wig that I used for my Lady Amalthea cosplay, but I thought it would fit to her. By that time, not many screenshots of Laura Brent have been published, so I used a very pretty drawning that I found on Google as reference.

Anyhow this is my very spontanous result:

And a little joke because I just had to :D

But yeah, it was just random and spontanous. I am atm starting to sew Susan's farewell dress and hope it works out as I hope it will :D

I sewed my sister the dress Lucy wears at the end of Prince Caspian, when they leave Narnia (I wasn't going for an exact copy, just something similar):
Lucy costume
costume with cape (the cape is actually taken from the coronation scene in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe)

I finally was able to start with my Susan Farewell dress last Saturday after problems with finding the right blue fabric. Because I did not find any, I decided to draw the pattern on it myself once I have done all the sewing. It WILL be a task and I have no idea where my mind was as I decided to do so, but, I know that at least then I will have an accurate pattern that looks as the original does! Sometimes I hate being such a perfectionist. But, I have already tried it out on a piece of fabric and it looks good.

So, anyway, this is how far I came with the sewing already :D I am very, very proud of my work, I did not think I would make it when I started it, but I really like how it turned out. What I still have to do is to add the neckline to the underdress, finish the golden trim on the sleeves. For the underdress, I have to add the interfacing and work a bit on the form so it does not have these stupid wrinkles on my waist, I have to shorten both dresses and add the seam and I have to put the trim on it as well. And then.. going for the painting part.
Any way :D I hope you guys like how it turned out so far.

Making off Part 2! :P

Basically I am nearly finished so far and I am very, VERY proud that I made it. There are still some things that I don't like the way they are, but I am trying to fix them today. I still have to put on the trim on the sleeves, but since I am doing that by hand I don't need to rush. I have sewed everything that needed to be done by sewing machine and can take the dress now to Ireland (where I don't have a sewing machine) and do the hand sewing there :D And, of course, paint the pattern on the fabric. I need to work a bit on the wing of the neckline, but so far so good, I am VERY happy with the outturn. I have to mention that, therefor I am not a professional tailor and never truly learned to sew professional, I can be proud of my work :) I hope you like the result!

You've done a lovely job, LittleLionTamer! It looks like the movie costume even without the detailing that you plan on adding.

Phew, now that the Con is over and I am back home in Germany I have finally found some time to sort through the pictures I took that weekend. And I am also able to present the dress in it's (almost) finished version!
What is still missing are the brown details on the flowers but I had no time left and I will do that now sometime soon. I also am not TOO fond of the underdress but I do love the puffy sleeves and with some time I'll work on it too! Now, all in one, I am really really proud of my work and really curious to see what you guys think =)

Milana, your Lucy costume is really sweet! You did a really good job putting it together, and the fabric you choose is quite accurate in color and print! :) Thanks for posting the pictures!

LittleLionTamer, your Lilliandil costume is very pretty! You captured the feel of the movie costume well. :)
The Farewell dress is absolutely amazing! :-o It looks very like the original costume. Beautiful, stunning job! You have some great sewing skills, I would say. :)

That inspires me to work on getting my little Lucy tunic a little closer to the movie version...
