I have to ask-- Where did the Diana get her dress? Or how did she make it? I plan on doing a rule of rose cosplay sometime soon and Right now I'm leaning into Diana xD;;

I made it. I had to hand dye the stripes and the pattern was something I just made via trail and error. It was so long ago, I don't remember if I used patterns or what patterns I used. But if you need reference photos, I have a zip pile of all mine here: www.channelavi.com/?portfolio=...

God, the setting is just perfect. Did you doll it up to make it look extra-creepy, or was it like that already? Anyway, Diana looks great! The lighting makes her especially pale, too - like a ghost, which perfect for this haunted-looking place!

This was actually in a house that was abandoned during the 1970s. It was out in the middle of nowhere in IL and most of it was still in 'good shape.' Nothing was taken out, no graffiti. But all the stuff had been left there and damaged over time from animals, mold, dust, the house falling apart. I'll post a picture of the outside of the house in a few days

It's really cool and unsettling! Did you feel freaked out while setting up in there?

Not really. We had gone to it before. I was more cold then anything. It was about 40 degrees out and the wind blew through the house pretty bad. All I had was this thin cotton dress, my boots and my wig!

Thank you! Worked hard on all those things. Had to make up for the fact that I was almost 10 years older than Diana at the time

You look amazing! I've always wanted to cosplay Diana, but the fabric intimidates me every time I look at it. XD

I had to dye all the stripes by hand. That was the longest part of the costume. But I really love how it turned out!

Thank you! It was very cold the night we got to go to the abandoned house. So when people like the environment of the photo it makes me feel like it was all worth it.

EmmyLou In reply to XHarmonySpiritX [2009-10-15 22:29:55 +0000 UTC]

I got it from the quilting section at a Huge Joann fabrics. Took FOREVER to find one I liked. Originally the lined were all White and brown, but because I wanted it to be darker, I colored in every other line by hand with brown dye markers. Making the fabric was probably the longest part of making the costume... and to be honest, I'm still not happy with it. I want to age it more so it looks more woren, but I can't because the fabric is to thin. That and I really would rather the lighter stripes be a bit darker. Your colors are just perfect.

XHarmonySpiritX In reply to EmmyLou [2009-10-16 17:25:48 +0000 UTC]

Ohh really? lol I would have got your material if I found it lol I think it's really good!! lol
I bet that was annoying!! Colouring all the lines lol! I think that your material is like the same as the gameplay Diana and I see!! I'm not really that happy with mine aswell lol it's too shiny lol and It took me and my nan a while to make my Diana costume!! was really hard lol and I really like your Rule Of Rose photos by the way!! Really good lol and thank you!! Their not that perfect! x
