OMG I'm bouncing around here people, I´ve found THE perfect fabric to use as overlayer for my version of Sarah´s ballgown.(And with this years fair come and gone, I can start shamelessly plotting to get that gown made for next year.)
Look at the Shiny!!!
It's organza which is pretty shiny on it's own, but this has actual glitter in/on it as well. Isn't it awesome?
*Continues bouncing around thread*
Also another fun fact, my boyfriend has somewhat allowed me to turn him into Jareth if I can make the dress come true for next year.(There is no way in Hell I'm getting him in tights, but I do have the right to put make up on him. And I managed to put a tophat on his head this year so putting a wig on him shouldn't be that hard either...) And if that is going to happen I am so going to sew a coat for him and embroider it wit silver thread and sew sequins all over.
Hey! Oh that is awesome! I can't wait to see it when you are finished.
I can't wait to start on it either. I have it all planned out, and seeing how I'm still jobless, I have all the time in the world to work on it. Going to order stuff from abroad for the first time in my live as well. Because I want a rainbowmoonstone cabochon for the jewel on the skirt, but should I order one from my favorite gemstonewebshop in country. I get to pay 30 euro for a rather small albeit good quality stone. So I've hopped around ebay a bit and found good size and quality stones for 9 dollar or so. Same for gold seedbeads, prices here are like 15 euro for 10/15 grams. Found 50 gram for 10 dollar.
And of course I will post pictures here when I'm done with it.
Post some pictures while your doing it as well, hm? I would love to see your work process!
Of course, I will be taking process pictures anyway, because I am also a forum member off the forum of the event it will be made for, and they have an sub forum dedicated to costumes. I always have my own costume topic there.

Yes pretty dress are always nice to look at. I've bought some bordeaux red silk taffeta, I'm going to make a fishtailskirt for myself.
