Looking for Galadriel dress info

[Arislan]

Hi, my wife and I are looking to buy or make her a Galadriel dress. We fell prey to Shadow Dale creations years ago so we won't be ordering from that site. Is there a tutorial anywhere on making that dress, or some place we can outright buy it?

Thanks!

Best tutorial site out there for any LotR costumes is AlleyCatScratch.com.

Also, Guri on the boards is a GREAT Galadriel!

If you're talking about her main dress with Frodo, it was made from silk and silk chiffon and was heavily beaded with silver and opalescent seed and bugle beads down the entire dress and sleeves.

The dress is fairly basic. Her other dress is basically the top right view of this Simplicity 9891:

There's also Simplicity 4940:

Thanks, I had seen that site before, it's a maze going through it. I think the dress is called the mirror dress. It's the one in that sequence where she asks Frodo for the ring.

Thanks again, I'll search for Guri and see what comes up!

It is the mirror dress.

My friend Yvette did a great, detailed right up for when she made her's: MirrorGownConstruction

Thanks for the link! It's looking more and more like we'll be making it ourselves. Guess we'll need to buy a sewing machine.
