Bespin Escape Jumpsuit - Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back
Originally I was going to make Hoth Leia for Shadowcon, but ended up not having time to even start on the vest or boots. I decided to not try to push it, and to just wear the jumpsuit as she did on Cloud City. I eventually finished the Hoth pieces later in the year.


Construction Notes: I used a bodysuit pattern meant to be form-fitting, and meant to be made using spandex. To compensate I cut the pieces too large, and then took it in as needed. The whole suit is fully lined, and zips up the front. The collar was made without a pattern and attached, and each of the quilted pieces I made seperately and sewed on. The belt was made of the same material. Unfortunately it doesn't fit right in the back, so I can't sit unless I unhook the neck and unzip it a little.

The boots I already had; already had the hair, too :) In October 2006 I completed my Hoth vest and boots, so it has since been Hoth Leia.
