| Hoth Snowsuit - Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back One of my all time favourite Leia costumes, since I was a kid, was her Hoth uniform. I decided I really wanted to make it next, so I bought all the materials and planned on having it ready for Shadowcon in January 2006. Well I messed around and didn't finish it in time - but I did have the jumpsuit ready, so I wore it to Shadowcon and to Dragoncon 2006 as she wore it on Bespin. |
| Construction Notes:For the vest, I began with a simple vest pattern. After getting the general pieces cut out and sewn together (the main fabric, batting, and lining fabric), I cut it apart and sewed it back together with the piping where I needed it. Then I drew lines on as guides for the quilted sections, and sewed that. The collar I made without a pattern and added. The rank badge Chase made for me. The gloves I bought online, as well as the boots - I made the boot covers out of leftover suede.
See my page on my Bespin Escape Leia for information on the jumpsuit. | ||||||||
