Description this is my dinah costume entry for 's costume contest.

*details* drawn by hand, inked with nib, tone added with photoshop, then poorly drawn back added in photoshop XD

i'm hoping that dispite the quickly drawn back she gets what the back looks like.

the idea was basically a shortened dress and i took inspiration from my brother's fife and drum uniform for the pants. i added medallions from Bethesda Terrace in central park on ribbons along the pants.
the top part of the shirt (the under part anyway) has pinstripes (because i like stripes) and puffed sleves. the part of the sleves near the wrist were borrowed from dress from 1917 [link] but was modified to come to an angle twords the middle finger in a ring. (i have no fashion vocabulary, i appologise)
the back looks a little like a ball gown that was shortened into a shirt. i remembered what had mentioned in a panel from NY comic con about dinah's costumes becoming less restrictive, and she wants somehting that dinah can basically move in easily. the only thing i question is the shoe choice, but i didn't figure she would put dinah in sneakers. still i can't run in heels. (i can barely stand in them )

umm.. i'm sorry if she looks like a waiter with the bow i just noticed that... you can tak it off if you choose it.

i like designing dresses and shirts alot, its alot harder to design pants though with out making them look akward or immobile. i used to make kimonos and i like thinking on the ways clothing could practically fit together. maybe someday (when i get a new sewing machine, a model and cash for cloth ) i can make this.
