over-complicating costumes since forever ago
Maleficent has a huge hoop. Bugger. May 17, 2014 michaela de bruce Leave a comment I had suspected but a few images put together really do reveal this quite clearly. If you watch the Awkward Situation clip you can see how the train skims the ground without folding or dragging. If you watch the edge…
Maleficent, so much wrangling May 14, 2014 michaela de bruce 1 Comment This is a sample of the crazy construction. Interior: CF seam allowance at very top of photo. This shows the intersection of the hip/skirt gores fronts, sleeve, side back and back hip/skirt gore. Same view but from the bottom looking up. No…
May 12, 2014 by michaela de bruce MALEFICENT at The El Capitan Theatre MALEFICENT explores the untold story of Disney’s most iconic villain from the classic SLEEPING BEAUTY. *arm flail* Someone please go. The gown will be on display! Though on the other hand I will be aiming to wear mine at about the same…

Well done enough. It’s a case where if I keep going I’ll probably undo the good stuff and then need to redo all over again. I thought I had two cartridges of silicone but I don’t Shoot. I need at least three more. So no more work on them for a while. And reverse…
I finally have a cape fabric for Elsa that I can easily dye with predictable results! I can’t believe it is available so randomly… Geoff’s Emporium on Lincoln Rd, Henderson has two rolls of about 30m each of off white cotton tulle. I may have grabbed what I could of the white. There is a…
