So after talking to a few of you and my boyfriend, who is actually doing all the EL work while I do all the sewing, we decided to go with an EL wire diffusion type thing. I'm not sure exactly how he's doing it, since he lives in Florida and I'm here in NOLA... he's mailing me the pieces as he finishes them so I can put them on the outfit. I think he's making the edging/masked off bits with craft foam, and I think he mentioned something about using silicone caulk instead of shower curtain because it will protect the wires as well as diffusing the light. I'll let you know for sure once the pieces show up at my house. However he did it, they look awesome so far. He's started on the boot lighting first:
And with the lights off:
Also, if anyone is curious, here's what I'm planning the outfit to look like:
Should be practical for pole dancing, recognizable as Tron.... I think this is going to be my new favorite outfit, the management is going to have to pry me out of it after Halloween or I'll wear it all year long.... End of Line dancer! Castor would want pole dancers, right??
I really hope some Tron fans wander into the club so I can give this spiel I've had rolling around in my head... "Welcome, user! You must be new to the Grid. Since our host Castor is unavailable at the moment, I hope you won't mind if I *personally* welcome you to the End of Line Club."
Because if no one recognizes my costume I'll be super sad.
