Description Gorgeous picture from Quebec Comiccon (2015), taken by the awesome DROOphotographer  

Character: The Evil Queen (Regina Mills) from Once Upon a Time

I really love how regal I look in this picture! Never thought I'd like a picture in which there is a side view of my nose, but oddly enough, I think it's my favorite from the photoshoot I did. 

This costume was handmade, from the pattern, right down to the lace, which I made myself in order to get the same pattern as the real thing. I also jeweled and beaded the whole thing by hand and I even made the comb out of a piece of a plasic bottle and tons of rhinestones. 
My mother helped me out with the wig the morning of the convention and I did the makeup. The necklace was found online and it is exactly the same one as Regina's.

Tons of hours of work went into the making of this cosplay and let me tell you, I am extremely proud of my progress.

Awesome!!! This is amazing, did you track the hours you put in? What did you make the lace out of? I wish my nose looked as nice as yours.

Thank you!

I don't have the exact hours, but just for the lace, each piece (from the flower's stem to the swirl on the big leaf) took about two hours to make. Making the pattern and the dress took a couple of weeks since I only worked on it in my spare time through my classes and job. I started on March 15th (2015) and I'm still considering tweaking it a little. ^^
I upgrade it before every convention I go to, the latest upgrade being the seed beads on the bra/tank top. 

For the lace I used tulle, some gift-wrapping silk paper and water-soluble interfacing. I drew out the shape of the lace pieces on the silk paper and sandwiched it between a layer of interfacing and a layer of tulle, then I brought it to the sewing machine and stitched over the design. After that it was a matter of dissolving the interfacing, ripping out the silk paper and cutting the lace. To finish it off, I painted it silver and added tons of glitter!

And by the way, your Belle cosplay is gorgeous!

That's so super awesome. I looove costumes with crazy awesome detail work like that, and I love hearing all about how people do it!! That's a brilliant idea to make lace. Thanks so much for telling me all about it! Do you have a cosplay page on FB? Link me up if you do!

Thank you! I used already made lace and cut it up lol. Maybe next time...
