Westworld Costume Thread

Good find on the boots! Mine aren't quite right, but they're close and super comfortable! :)


MIB boot ID... from what i can tell he is wearing civil war US army artillery boots. the stove pipe boots are close. they are the only thing i have found with the correct stitching. you will need to find one with a high heel and arch. i am still looking for boots.


these are close just way to tall.

I found a pretty decent match if not exact for the lace on Maeve's collar on Etsy.

Working on Young William myself. The pants are almost an exact match for Wahmaker Railhead Stripe Taupe. The Wahmaker Gambler shirt as has been previously noted. Still working on the hat. I believe it's either Stetson or Larry Mahan, in Silver Belly. Just having trouble identifying the exact style. (Update: Ane Crabtree tells me it was likely a Stetson)

This belt is close: https://www.huntercompany.com/onlin...357-caliber-Small/p/35776469/category=8814708

This holster is close: https://www.huntercompany.com/online-store#!/Frontier-Holster/c/9261459/offset=0&sort=normal

(I believe the belt and holster were bespoke, possibly by El Paso leather)

Boots: No idea yet

Jacket: Clearly custom. Closest would maybe be a tweed sport coat

Hi! New here thanks to also looking at Clean Up Tech cosplay bits. I found the lights for the 3M mask system. They appear to be painted Eternal Fire BH01 bike lights. Only seem to be available from LEDsupermall.com There's a good guide to other items on costumediyguide.com Hope this is of help!

Thanks

Working on a Clementine -

I'm working with Minky fabric here: https://www.spoonflower.com/fabric/6008767-clementine-textured-square-by-lnx
-- Not sure it's the technically correct fabric type but I loved the color the best of the swatches I got and having some texture seemed better than none. Will report back on how sewing goes. I got 4 yards but honestly finally having cut it out yesterday could easily have done with 3. I am a fairly small size and I did take in some of the measurements on my pattern but could probably still save some yardage.

Working with two patterns, so far one top one bottom:
Simplicity Pattern 2851 - The saloon girl. I find that all the resulting costumes look cheap - I think it's the top, I did the pattern once and it looks awful and extends far on the shoulders rather than inward. The bustle seems quite good but should need to be a little short as there are bloomers underneath anyway.
Simplicity Pattern 1425R5 - modified a good bit, but a much better fit for me. Leveraged the top pattern on the Saloon girl to get the arms better, extra cuts in the back panels, cut down the front, added back ruffle.

Gloves: Etsy shop that has the spot on gloves: https://www.etsy.com/transaction/1255016813 (may need to request a custom order but she's expressed interest in being a supplier for the fandom so it's a good thing)

Tights: https://www.sockdreams.com/pointelle-scrunch-top-knee-socks.html--> also here because they were out of stock https://www.artisansocks.com/sexy-stockings-sexy-socks/knit-otk-thigh-high-socks-black-1418.asp
I think they were just leg avenue brand afterall and I was surprised. Need a little mod on top is all.

The black scroll gimp trim is a pain to find - here's the two options I liked best:

https://www.etsy.com/listing/277258...earch_query=gimp trim black&ref=sr_gallery_13

Collar lace I'm still torn on, no start on earrings yet and as far as I can tell we only see her boots at all one time when they're dead on the floor. I may go for a comfort option :)

Since the "Man in Black" hat and Teddy's hats were supposedly from Baron Hats... could Williams white hat be from there as well? So far they're not advertising it as such and they probably would if they made it.....
 
I was told directly by Ane Crabtree, the costume designer for the show, that she bought off-the-rack Stetson hats for young William, likely the Skyline or Spartan. That certainly makes it a bit more affordable, although they're still $200+ new, and used ones are hard to come by.
 
got my MIB baron's hat in. it is made of rabbit fur and is pretty nice... here are the pics. took about 5 weeks from order to receive it. comes with a certificate from barons, my hat is number 120.

My MIB fabric arrived from Thistle Hill Weavers! I'm super excited to start work on the jacket! Has anyone found a jacket pattern that matches?

bump,,how is everyone's westworld costumes coming?? i am waiting on the last parts from magnoli clothiers.

Funny you should ask! I'm getting cold feet about making my own suit jacket, so I was waiting to see how yours turned out from Magnoli. Post some pics when you get it! :)
 
LOL!! i understand... no worries. i am sure he will post some pics of the vest and the jacket he is making me. but i will when i get them.
 
Has anyone had any luck with the Hector costume? I am going nuts trying to find boots exactly like his! They appear to be burgundy. I heard the show got their boots from the boot barn. I haven't had any luck finding any like his though. Does anyone have any ideas where I can find them? The other thing driving me crazy is that leather hat of his. Any ideas on a good base hat to use? I recognize the patterns on the hat from the Tandy kit.
 
First post here, starting on my MIB costuming - Hat from Baron Hats, Knife from Crazy Crow. I did add a bit of my own flair to the hat, in remembrance of my uncle (deceased) who was a colonel in the Air Force, a pilot, and an extremely cool human. Other than that, the hat is nearly screen identical and awesome. Baron had to do some minor alterations to make it exact to the screen (the hat didn't sit straight- it was pointing off to the right and had some extreme curl-up on the sides). The knife just needs the gray twine wrap on the handle. Off to a good start!

Here's a listing I found in case anyone is looking for buttons similar to the ones on the bodice of Dolores' dress. Hope this helps someone!

Looks like I can't add the link here so:

Cut Steel Button Mother of Pearl MOP Antique Victorian Vintage[/h]put that in etsy and it should pop up.
 
Hello All, big fan of the Westworld costumes here. Incredible looking MIB hats. I am putting together a Hector Escaton costume for ComicCon in October and am having trouble finding a good replica hat. I'd much rather buy a reasonable facsimile or pay someone more talented than I to craft it, but I'm not opposed to making one myself. I've never tooled leather before, but I guess I have time to learn. Anyone have any pointers?
