My lenses arrived yesterday, I tested them and I'm happy with the result. I need to fix my wig, clothes.
The makeup is horrible, but I took the photos at dawn in the Brazilian summer heat, anyway I'm happy that the lenses have the result I imagined.

I’m so happy with most of the photos we took of our Valyrian Wedding cosplays at the Elfia last year. This was one of the first ones, taken by Silverlynxcosplay.

I cosplayed Helaena from episode 9, but didn’t really take any good photos because I’m too nervous to post cosplay on my Instagram lol. I wish I felt okay posting whatever I want on there, maybe someday I will… maybe when I actually have a place to take photos other than my backyard 😅

Two costumes, 20 years apart
Left: Return of the King Arwen-inspired dress, 2003 Right: House of the Dragon Rhaenyra screen accurate dress, 2023
Both of these costumes were based on screen-used dresses, using self drafted patterns and my best attempt at recreating what was seen in the filmed media. Both feature neckline trim with beading applied over top, and screen-accurate jewelry, but that's about where the similarities end.
The Return of the King dress was made fairly quickly, over the course of about a month in the fall of 2003, and used a modified stretch velvet dress I already had on hand. The underdress was drafted from scratch, but a t-tunic shape without set-in sleeves was about the height of my pattern drafting skills at the time. I remember carefully figuring out the shape for the lower sleeve, to get the bell to hang right. Just about every bit of it is polyester. Neither the cut, color, nor fabric is accurate to what's in the movie, but I wanted something that had the feel of one of Arwen's dresses, just for the fun of dressing up for the premiere, and it certainly achieved that.
By contrast, the House of the Dragon dress was made over about 8 months, from January to August 2023. The pattern was drafted from my measurements into a 10 panel princess seam dress, with the waist, hip, and skirt measurements being equal in every panel. Both the red overdress and the black underdress (providing opacity and a modesty panel under the back lacing, but otherwise unseen here) are made from 100% silk fabric. The trim at the neckline and the narrower trim along the vertical seamlines are both polyester, but the beads over the neckline trim are garnet rondelles rather than plastic. The screen-accurate earrings were made by me as well, and along with other purchased jewelry and the wig (also styled by me) complete the over all screen accurate look -- as opposed to whatever earrings I threw on in 2003 and the weird hair color I was sporting at the time, lol.
My sewing and general costuming skills have definitely improved in the last 20 years, but it's interesting to see that both of these dresses have a bit of trouble with the neckline not wanting to lay flat. For the Arwen dress, this was because I didn't yet know how to iron trim to curve it before applying it to a round neckline, and I chose bad trim for achieving that, anyway. For Rhaenyra, the problem was that the V neck was cut on the bias and stretched more than I had anticipated, and I didn't realize it until after the trim was all on and the lacing in the back grommetted right through it. I did look closely at fixing that by taking in the top edge of the center front by a fraction, but I had actually attached the trim so well that I couldn't move that seam without damaging the trim.
The other similarity between these two dresses is perhaps the most important of all: people at the event knew who I was dressed as, and I had an absolute blast wearing both costumes. Still, it's fun to look back at the improvement in my skills over the last 20 years.

Alicent Cosplay
Hi there,
I know I said I would only come to post fanfiction but, a few weeks ago I was talking about a possible cosplay of Alicent.
Tumblr media
And I bought a large part of the fabric, embroidery thread that I didn’t already have, bias for the sleeves that will be embroidered to give a golden side and avoid the "plastic" side of the golden bias that I could see (for the cheapest).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(i will maybe paint or emroidered the pattern of the main dress)
I don’t know if that tells you that I post how cosplay goes here or if I post it on Instagram or Tiktok (if I can get started)
So if you’re interested, tell me

Character vs Cosplay: Helaena Targaryen
Helaena is one of the most interesting and complex characters in HotD for me. I like the way they’ve interpreted her dragon dreams and hope they show more of that in the next season. She also had some of the best lines in Season 1–I love that she seems to be Otto’s favorite. 😂

New Cosplay work in progress Alys Rivers
Alys Rivers was a bastard of House Strong, a wet nurse at Harrenhal, and a bedmate of Prince Aemond Targaryen. She could allegedly see visions of the future, and she was considered a witch queen by some.
Found my Alys Rivers dress in the basement and immediately started working on the dress 😍

Yesterday 02/12/23 I met Steve and Ewan dressed as Daenerys Targaryen on ccxp23, I am so thrilled and happy. They seemed really have enjoyed the cosplay 💕
🐉How it went on there :
Steve welcomed me with a ‘wow’ and a big warm hug (I was sooo cold lmao ), I could not have been happier , Ewan said : ‘you look amazing!’ twice (once I came in and once i got out) , I also showed him my little vhaegar tattoo, he found it adorable!
This made my year. Thank you ccxp for this opportunity❤️‍🔥

I feel lonely because I just wanted to share my obsession with Aemond, how hard it is to get a cosplay group.
I had seen some of his casual fanarts and I should have done better, but at least it satisfied my heart

Quick preview of the cosplays I've been working on for Dragon Con 2023: Rhaenyra Targaryen's dress from HotD s01e07 and s01e08, a punk version of Rhaenyra, and my Harley Quinn-Taylor Swift mashup.
This is only half of the costumes I'm taking to Dragon Con this year -- full lineup coming soon!
