My Costume History, Day 215: Padme’s Lake dress (D

My Costume History, Day 215: Padme’s Lake dress (Disneybound) from Star Wars, made in 2020/2021

This is another project I started for our 2020 Disney trip, got mostly finished but didn’t put the finishing touches on/wear it until 2021.

My 3rd version of the lake dress from 2006 had been disassembled and I still had all of the pieces of the outer part floating around my sewing room. I had gotten them out to use for my new version in 2019, I thought, I ought to do something with these now that I’ve got a new lake dress.

So I decided I’d use them to make a disneybound outfit! First thing I did was to re-dye them - I wanted them to be a little more saturated. Then I took all of the pieces and just started messing with them on my dressform. Eventually I decided I’d do a long dolman shrug - I sewed the 2 back pieces together starting around center back, and then sewed the front pieces the backs, leaving an opening for the arms and gathering at the shoulder to kinda mirror the gathering on the sleeve of the lake dress.

I was torn on the length. The original pieces were very long and trailed the ground and I loved that, but knew it wouldn’t fly for wearing in a Disney Park. I ended up bustling the back to shorten it when I need to, but I can unsnap them if I want a more dramatic version.

I got all that done and then it sat for nearly a year til I could finally wear it. Then I finally had to figure out what I wanted to do for the rest of it - when I do bounds I like to keep them in the realm of things I’d actually wear to the parks and be comfortable, so for this one I decided on a top and shorts.

I bought a white halter top on amazon hoping I could dye it, but it was awful LOL. I disassembled it and used it a basis to make a new pattern and made my own out of a soft yellow knit. I bought some pink shorts and pink flats to go with it. The headband I bought, dyed purple, and added pearls.

This was really fun to wear at Galaxy’s Edge! It was comfy and the shrug was great to keep the sun off me. I also took it on our disney cruise in 2024 where I got some great, very windy photos LOL Can’t wait to wear it again one day!

My Costume History, Day 214: Black Widow-inspired

My Costume History, Day 214: Black Widow-inspired dress from the Avengers, made in 2020/2021

So when we were originally going to attend Dapper Day at WDW in 2020, one of the duo outfit ideas we had was a quick Black Widow and Cap America look for the friday night Disney Springs outing.

I got started on mine early - I used Butterick B6582 (though, I did waffle between that and a different dress style - but I stuck with the Butterick pattern because it would be a quicker build). I picked up a refined ponte knit from Joann, some in black and some in red - even though I was making this fitted vintage-style dress, I wanted it to be comfortable for eating and walking around Disney Springs, and the stretchy refined ponte knit fit the bill perfectly.

The basic dress went together really quickly - I had it made in a weekend. I used a red zipper out of my stash for the back closure. Then I got the Widow symbol cut out of the red and finished the edges and started messing with where I wanted to place it on the dress. My original idea was to put it off center and an at angle, but when I pinned it on, I wasn’t sure.

So I posted to my IG stories to ask for ideas. I pinned it on in lots of different places on the dress, at different angles, even pinned it down smaller to try that. Some of the positions were very TNG-uniform vibes LOL

I just couldn’t make up my mind, and since our trip was cancelled at that point anyway, I stuck it in my closet for a while. Finally got it back out a few months later and just sewed the red panel on in the original place I wanted it.

I did wear it for our 2021 rescheduled trip, but we never did make Chase’s matching Cap vest. Just wore it to dinner at Narcoossee’s our first night. Paired it with one of my widow bracelets from my costume and some red heels.

I really liked it, it was super comfortable and easy to wear! I brought it back on our Disney Cruise in 2024 too, which was fun because I got to meet some Marvel characters in it! This’ll stay in my rotation of Disney trip dresses for a while!

My 3rd version of Belle’s ballgown from Beauty and the Beast. It’s so fun to interpret cartoon costumes into real life and add in your own design choices! Each time I’ve made this ballgown I’ve done it a different way, and this time I wanted it to be inspired by a giant soft yellow rose 💛

My Costume History, Day 213: Dale from Chip & Dale

My Costume History, Day 213: Dale from Chip & Dale Rescue Rangers, made in 2020/2021

I’d been dying to go back to Dapper Day and we finally planned a whole trip around with multiiple outfits for April... 2020.

Chase had wanted to do a Chip & Dale duo, so I’d come up with a dapper Dale concept. And I kept working on my outfit despite the fact it was pretty apparent the trip wasn’t happening.

For the top, I used a vintage repro pattern I had, which for such a simple top you’d think would be an easy build, but the directions were confusing and I ended up finishing it my own way LOL. For the fabric, I wanted a more painterly look to Dale’s flower print, so I drew it up in photoshop, turned it into a repeat and had it printed on spoonflower cotton.

The skirt is yellow matte satin with a built in red petticoat - I alternated between red and yellow tulle on the petticoat. I also made the hat out of the leftover matte satin, and had enough cotton left from the top I added a bow to it.

Chase wanted to wear ears with the outfits, but I wasn’t sure I wanted to, so I made sure to make mine easily removable. Chase 3d modeled and printed the ears, painted them and added furs. His attach to his hat with magnets - mine velcro to a headband I wear under my hat (the top of the hat is open, so it’s accessible and I can quickly take them off or put them back on!)

At the last minute I made the acorn bag out of stuff I had in my stash - some brown plaid for the main body of the bag and some tan burlap and gold netting for the top. It turned out cute!

I also made Chase’s Chip jacket - we wanted to try to keep it as cool to wear as possible, so it’s made out of brown cotton to try to keep it breathable. The fur collar snaps on, so he can take it off if it gets too hot.

So most of my Dale costume was done in 2020 - I finished the hat and made the bag and Chase’s jacket in 2021 for our rescheduled trip. We finally got to wear these spring dapper day at WDW and it was so much fun! In fact we enjoyed it so much we brought them back to dapper day in 2022 too, and wore them HSV Expo in 2024! So glad he talked me into doing these LOL
