About this Costume
- Construction Details:
-
I love *love* the Cheshire Cat and how mysterious and crazy he is. He's not really a good guy or a bad guy, a very clever character.
I was going for more of a 'messy' 'punk' Cheshire look. I intend to add to this costume in the future and do more elaborate makeup.
CONSTRUCTION:
The Wig is pieced together from with separate wigs.
The Corset was purchased, however, I added the lace, bows, light purple panel in the back, and pink halter straps.
The Tights were purchased
The Arm Warmers were made using heat n bond to apply stripes to a solid piece of lycra
The Tail was made using the head n bond lycra method. I stuffed the tail using Polyfill. I sewed it to a strap that I tie around my waist underneath the petticoat
The Ears were made very last minute ( the night before the con I first wore it to ) I hot glued different layers of colored foam to each other and then attached to those to a headband. A very cheap and simple method.
Furry Wrist Cuffs and Leg Warmers were made by attaching fake fur to thick black elastic. They stay up/on very well!
The Skirt is made of 2 different petticoats/tutus layered on top of each other.
The Shoes are pink furry slippers that were given to me ( gotta love walking around a con all day in slippers! )
