Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland Costumes

Nope! I'm here too, aelynn. I'm working on the Red Queen. Well....I've ordered most of the stuff fabric wise, the wig, wig dye, and stuff BUT I'm cursing that outer skirt fabric. The damask that can't be found. Grrrrrrrr.

Hey guys, look at this lovely lady!!! Amazing job! *o* If I can get over my fear of snow blindness after doing 1/4 of my Giselle ( Enchanted ) maybe I'll be starting this one sooner rather than later...

...

am I the only girl in these AiW threads?

"She's got the looks that kill!" :love :$

I've been considered a girl before... :lol :p ;)
 
IIIIiiiiiinneresting...

Here's ( a VERY small picture of ) what may ( or may not ) be the first images of the Mattel " Alice " DOLLS...sorry fellas, if it's made by Mattel, I can definitely call it a doll this time. ;)

I wonder why they made the Hatter's coat grey instead of the recognizable brown...

Either way, they look cute and I want them! :D
 
OK so my college has a Mardi Gras party every year with a costume contest, and as I have won first place the last 4 years in a row, I thought to myself "what better place to premier Alice and the Hatter together?" so we won, first place! and I managed to take these pictures before we ended for the night. I'm missing some more details, and my new Coat, Vest, and Pants aren't done yet, but I thought you'd all get a kick out of them anyway!

P.S. I was in the middle of the "Single Ladies" dance and completely ripped my pants wide open. So they are pretty much beyond repair, and let this be a lesson to you all to make sure you have some give in your pants!
 
LOVE those pictures Chad!! You are insanely talented and I love seeing all of your work! Again, gotta say, your Alice is lovely! I'd love to see more pictures of that dress. Any tips you can offer, I'd greatly appreciate!! ( ps. were those the 7/8 buttons you ordered? $1.50 ones? )

The thing about the single ladies dance...funniest story I have heard in a LONG TIME! I can just picture it but can't imagine how ridiculously hilarious it actually was! Travis and I think most of the guys here are using dress pants but I'm not sure that many others will need the give to enable them to perform 'single ladies'. XD HAhahhha Kudos to you!!

Jodo, that's so weird isn't it!?!? It does look kinda blue... Bluey grey...definitely not as blue as the kilt outfit though...but who knows why they'd put the blue coat on him with pants!? Sigh. Oh well. They will still look lovely perched upon my dresser beside Victor and Emily...

I'm SO GLAD my new vest is done...can't wait to start destroying the fabric for the coat! :love And I finally guilted Travis into getting a new pair of contacts! Wahoo!! ( Halloween was a horrible ordeal since he's one of those touching-the-eyeball-a-phobes and he vowed to never wear contacts again ) He has Depp-brown eyes and the first pair was BARELY noticeable in pictures...I don't really like the style he got since he wanted to surprise me and ordered them himself without asking my advice but...it was a sweet gesture. I might order a couple other pairs as backup. Has anyone here found anything good? Everything looks good to me online but I have light hazel eyes so everything works...then when he puts them on they just disappear. :( If anyone can offer suggestions, throw'em up on here and I'd be super thankful! Preferrably hoping to keep it less than $50 so custom are out of the question...we work on a budget. :D

I love my mini-Alice dress but I can't stop thinking about the Garden one!! Here's hoping I have enough time within this month ( OFFICIALLY ONE MONTH MINUS ONE DAY ) to get that puppy done too! If not, mini Alice will suffice since that was the original plan...

OH, BUT I DO HAVE PROGRESS ON MY ALICE!!!

I went blonde today. Hoorah!

YES! those are the buttons we got. I wanted to get them cheaper than listed price so I ordered them wholesale through my friend who owns a lumber yard, they gave her the funniest look when she called in the order! (her employees, obviosly people on the phone can't visably give you a look hahahahahah)
 
If you liked them shoulda put a bigger seam on it

oh, oh, oh


I always dug that Knave of Hearts outfit. If only there was more reference to go by.
 
$50.00 or less for custom contacts? That will be difficult! You could always paint them?!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! HAHAHAHA!

If I get them I need prescription lenses! I can't see worth squat!
 
There are companies out there that will create custom design contacts. I ordered a set of purples once. Maybe they'd charge one price for a pair of different lenses, or maybe you'd have to buy 2 pairs, for the different eyes.
Will find out soon.
