While working on my costume today, I realized that I never shared photos of the one I made last year. For some reason I decided to be Jane Fonda’s character in Klute, which meant I was explaining my costume all night long. A few people asked if I was a pirate wench, to which I just finally started agreeing with. I later spilled molten lava cheese on my skirt while trying to devour cheese-covered tator tots and bacon wrapped hot dogs from Crif Dogs. So, I think this costume is retired and won’t appear again. The blouse and boots might if I decide to be a wench next year, but I highly doubt it.

I made the skirt and vest from ultra suede and the blouse from silk. I got the boots off of eBay. This was miraculously the only photo taken of me the entire night using my cell phone as I was about to leave the apt. My hair is way too long now to recreate the photo of Jane below, but I have dreams of doing so with my costume (that is if I can get the cheese out!)
