Civil War Wanda Maximoff

Seconding Pantone 202, that's a really great red.

I did hook and eyes to keep the jacket attached to the corset. At one point I considered magnets but too much effort and the hook and eyes aren't noticeable so it works. It was a little awkward making a jacket that purposefully doesn't fit to close around the front, but I think it would have looked too baggy if it did.

So, long story short, I pulled my coat out of the suit bag in July for photos of the finished costume and found it had black spots all over it of what I am assuming is mold. The corset is fine, jewelry is fine, but I trashed the coat and gloves so this project for me, is over. I'm going to live vicariously through all of ya'lls great costumes until I get mine commissioned in February as I don't have the heart to remake it myself.

Sorry to hear that. It's so hard when you put all that work into something and something like that happens.

Oh no!!! That's awful, I'm so sorry to hear that

 

[Goldhawk]

Oh, wow. I'm sorry to hear that. That's really frustrating.

Yup. Super frustrating. But lesson learned about storing things.
