my Wonder Woman inspired dress
one of my friends held her superhero themed birthday party yesterday, and I got my Wonder Woman dressed finished in the squeak of time. I still want to tinker (a couple of seams are a little puckered, and it needs small shoulder pads).
On the bus there I rememebered that I have a vintage 40s hat in red wool that would be great with this, or I wanted to make a rockabilly style headband but didn't get there in time. Anyhoo, on to my dress
I altered the neckline and made it up on the fly. Originally wanted a W shape but thought it wouldn't work and went for a deeper V - until I realised the V would meet the waistband, and that wouldn't be the look I was after with such a narrow band.
and I was so excited to find an affordable massive gold star brooch on ebay. As idea of scale, I take size 9 gloves
Oh and a full length pic -- which I've borrowed from Dee
