Long time over-due: Arwen Requiem Photos

July 19th, 2008 (02:31 pm)

In anticipation of selling the darn thing, my mom took some close up shots of the detailing on this dress. Most are blurry so I'll need to retake them, but this gives an idea of how crazy we went on this dress.

The ladies at my mom's sewing and dressmaking school were stunned by it and wanted to use it in their August fashion show to show off their work (since they did the sleeve embroidery). They also said that I need to start my initial selling price at $1000. o_O I don't think it's worth that much, giving how inaccurate it is, but it gives me room to come down, at least. (And some non-anal person who wants a LOTR dress but doesn't know the difference might buy it...)

SO anyways, here you go.

I'm inclined to agree with your mom's friends. Damn, but that's gorgeous.

Wow, that is really beautiful. I'm not quite sure if it's $1000 beautiful, but definitely a couple hundred.
