I'm thinking about adding a belt, I just haven't found one that's called out to me yet. |
In the end, the costume consists of:
Owl 'Feather' Cape (made)
Mask (made)
Brown Dress (made)
Chevron Tights (Target)
Heels (not shown; Steve Madden)

The back of the feather cape. |
I also wanted to be able to wear the dress after Halloween, so I paired it up with a cardigan and picked up a vintage sweater guard. Through the powers of the internet, this was super easy to do. A great place to look is etsy; I used the Designs by Annette shop.
So, whooo (or what) are you going to be for Halloween?

And no, owning an owl as a pet is not recommended. I checked. :)
adorable! great job! You're so talented :) It would be so cool to have an owl as a pet (like Harry Potter hehehe)
ReplyDeleteI'm going to be HitGirl for Halloween, I finished my belt over the weekend and got the approval of my friends. I can't wait to party this weekend.
That's fantastic! The owl cape is amazing. I hope you have a lovely Halloween.

ReplyDeleteOoh, that's much cuter than the pattern photo. Too bad I have to make it exactly :( Now I'm worried about not having enough feathers, thanks a lot! Lol.
