Status: Complete
Easiest Aspect: The jeans and shoes -- had them
already.
Hardest Aspect: The vest! Fabric just doesn't come
patterned like that any more, so I had to get fabric that had a white
pattern on a white background and paint over it with fabric paint.
I'm really happy with the end result, but it took 24 hours over the
space of four days -- that's six hours a day, and I was working every
day as well! I thought my arm was going to fall off.
Contruction Notes: The shirt was made by Dorset,
a wonderful comissioner in Melbourne, as I didn't really have enough
time to get everything finished myself. It's really nice, very professional.
The wig is from cosworxs, and has a serious side-parting going on,
held in place with a clip. It was trimmed to the correct length and
then the bottom edges curled inwards with my heat curlers to give
in that proper 'Sarah' hair curve.
Labyrinth is my favorite movie of all time, so I was really hyped
to make this costume, and I'm really pleased with how well it came
out. We did a dance routine too, to Magic Dance! But nobody videod
it... ah well, some day.
