So Jason and I decided to try for an Indiana Jones theme for this year, him as Indy, which should be fairly simple assuming I can find the hat, and me as Marion Ravenwood in her ridiculous white dress... http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV5BMTMyNzA4MDA0Ml5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTYwNjEwNTA3._V1._SX485_SY325_.jpg

I have had no luck finding any dress like it online, so I will need to check out some thrift shops, or find someone willing to make it from scratch for me. I found a pattern that would work http://www.voguepatterns.com/item/V8285.htm?search=dress&page=all once the extra embellishments of sleeves and lace "bustle" were added... but Lisa is away on honeymoon, and Julie is already over-worked. I might ask Jenna, all her cosplay work has given her need to learn to sew well, but I'm a little worried... If any of you know someone who would be willing to take on a costuming project, I would be happy to employ them briefly, paying for materials and time... I do want to keep the dress fairly cheap, but sturdy and servicable, so some mixture of economy and quality. Thanks in advance!
