Visas Marr Cosplay

I took my Visas Marr cosplay to Star Wars Celebration 2017 in Orlando, and I had a blast! Below I shall dump some photos from my creation process, and give notes on what I did! I don't have photos for every part, so if you're curious how I did something, ask away!

I'd like to point out that in the beginning, I attempted to draw my own pinwheel pattern for the outer dress. That idea quickly died, so I contacted someone who makes custom stencils, and BOOM. Magical pinwheel stencil.

Ta-da! Here's the first test piece of fabric, sprayed with gunmetal gray plasti dip. It worked out beautifully, and flexed very well with the fabric that I got from Jo-Ann.

For the gold pieces I made stencils and filled in the holes with chalk, then cut out those chalked pieces. The gold fabric was just a gold stretchy fabric I found at Wal-mart.

Looking good so far!

I used Heat'n Bond to attach the gold to the veil pieces. I had to use it carefully because the iron liked sticking to this fabric.

Outer dress pieces!

Since I had zero desire to make gloves from scratch, I just bought some on Amazon. Those silver stripes? Totally silver Sharpie. I only sewed down the gold trim into the inner glove seam, as I wanted it to stretch around my arm and not pull and tug in weird ways otherwise. This worked out quite nicely.
