Description ... be with you, always. And inspiration too.

My little tribute for the Star Wars 4th May day. I'm fan of SW since childhood^^

Me and SiberianSaago made two Flame gowns from Episode I (Padme Amidala's handmaidens), close to the original as much as we could.
It's hand dyed velvet (I tought, I would die before I will color it from white to dark orange! It was white, fully white. And no, I didn't use airbrush (:   I even got an allergy to acrylics!!!), we even did an embroidery on a sleeve.  The second red hood is also there, but the first one hood cover it on a picture. I'm really proud of this costume, it looks like an original one (:
P.S. In the day of Con I usually looks like a zombi, so I photoshoped myself a little,because I  don't want to scare anyone. Be strong and don't sleep at night before the Con, sew everything, that is not ready

Woah you hand dyed it? o:
What was it like? Like what were the things that made it difficult? Did the colour stick to the fabric? Just wondering cause I want to experiment making some clothing myself and want to know what other people did and all before I try c':

I used acrylics for silk, it stick to a fabric well, but after washing powder color will be much more  brighter.  But with a mere soap light dirty can be moved without changing colors.

The dye job looks fantastic! I can't imagine how tricky that was.
The struggle of being a con zombie is too real, I hope you had a good time!
