Bellatrix Pattern Selling Update!
Thank you to everyone who is interested in my costumes and the patterns. I have been overwhelmed by your compliments and support. I have to admit, that though the interest is there, it may not be feasible for me to make the patterns or do commissions. You see, I am directing a movie. Costuming has always been a bit of a hobby for me, and initially in my directing career I was unable to pay someone else to do the costumes, and thus had to do them myself. Which led to the survival job of commissions, which led to recreations of costumes from movies, to wit, my lovely Bellatrix costume. I had no idea posting this costume on line would get so many fans. I must admit I am pleasantly surprised and humbled by your support. Perhaps as time passes and more interest develops I can do a tutorial for the costume if not a pattern. But, right now my time is for my feature film project, which I am so excited about. It’s called Surely You Jest, an epic fantasy adventure! There’s romance, wit, adventure, and a bit of dark magic. Sounds like fun huh? I think so. For those of you who follow my crazy adventures and have not yet checked it out here is the website, www.surelyyoujestthemovie.com. If you are a potterhead it should be your type of project. I wish you all well. Happy creating.

This dress is beautiful. I have a Bellatrix costume that I made by modifying an old velvet dress, but I would be interested in the pattern for this one if it is available. I would especially be interested how you created the cummberbund/waist cincher part as that was the most difficult part for me to recreate and I am not particularly happy with the results I have gotten.

I’ve been searching for a Bellatrix costume and I love yours. A pattern is a great idea, do you ever sell your reproductions?

Hello, i think your costumes are exquisite.
Big well done for all your gorgeous attention to detail, i appriciate such things too, if your going to do something especially a cosplay do it properly. am cosplaying Bellatrix for the November premier this year, and i have quite a lot of my materials set up for my big undertaking this summer, i was wondering if i could ask you about the stitching on your costume? I have bought some silver thread to embroider the swirling detail by hand, but if you have any other suggestions?

Thankyou so much, and keep up the good work, can’t wait to see your next project

Honestly, you may think me crazy, but I used a bleach pen on various levels of the fabric, it gave it a funky aged look. I hope this helps.

i am interested in the pattern, but haven’t really the time to make it myself, you don’t sell your reproductions of the dress do you? please contact me.

Aw~
I would love the pattern for free.
I live in New Zealand, so buying over seas is a huge pain in the ass.
Maybe put up some downloadable files for the pattern? I’m sure I’ll be able to work with that. Haha.
Either way, beautiful job on the dress. C:

I am interested in how you made the swirls? Did you hand embroider them?
January 1st, 2012 at 8:57 pm
Bleach pen.
Messy but effective and cheap and it has that lovely weathered look.
