A Princess and Her Handmaid

Description

Still somewhat work in progress costumes, but then again a crown for me is the only addition we're looking for right now and after that while they may be 'done' I bet we will just keep adding to and tweaking them forever XD

Anyway, on the left there is dear Lilith as the handmaid. Her costume is simplistic, the boots were bought at Payless and the dress from the Salvation Army. No idea where that corset came from, but the ribbon she used to tie it up is from the same spool that's on the bottom of my own dress. The metal belt is mine, given to me by my grandmother (picked up from I don't know where) and the pouch was made by my grandmother to go with a matching cloak that our photographer spent the better part of the day wearing. The necklace is also mine, a jade Chinese octagon given to me by my mother a few Christmases ago, and that leaf crown was made from a strand of leaves we bought at the craft store and tied up to look like a crown.

On the right is me. Like Lilith my dress was also bought at the Salvation Army, though Lilith was nice enough to hem it and add a strand of ribbon to cover it up followed by using a hot glue gun to add some plastic gemstones to it around the collar and bottom of the dress. The hair wrap is actually a fake, it comes on a clip that you hide under your hair line so it looks real. I bought that at a store in Mackinaw City some years ago. Finally is the necklace, which was made for me by my friend Melissa as a gift for this specific costume when I told her what I was going to be wearing. I can't thank her enough for the gift, it's truly gorgeous and clearly made with a lot of love.

These costumes were worn to the Michigan Renaissance Festival on September 15th 2012, and damn if we didn't have fun doing it :)

Also, this is just one of about half a dozen pictures we took at the festival. If you want to see the rest, come like us on Facebook! We always put up all our shoot photos and the like there! Click the link --> [link]
