Construction Details:

*Spoilers* If you have not watched Santa Baby 2 and want to keep the movie a surprise read no further XD

After watching the first Santa Baby movie I was happy to hear Santa Baby 2 was coming out the Christmas after. This time around the character that intrigued me other then Mary was Teri McMillan. A young lady who did what Mary could not the year before, run Santa's workshop and have everything ready to go by the time Christmas Eve rolls around. Santa decides he wants to travel the world and leave the workshop in Teri's capable hands. Teri, however has another plan..and isn't who she appears to be in the long run.

Teri's Christmas outfit really stood out to me the first time I saw it. I knew I had to make it (seeing I didn't have any holiday style outfits).

The base suit is made of a crushed dark red velour (same as the fabric from the movie).
The top is lined and has decorative silver buttons down the front. I added the gold piping in the seamlines to create the miltary front style jacket Teri has. I also used a nice black trim that had gold chain weaved into it for the trimming down the sides. I used white faux fur to trim the jacket and hat as well.

The pants were just a basic pair of spandex pants I made out of the crushed velour.

The hat was just a bigger triangle sewn together to create the long style Santa hat she wears.
The belt was made from black vinyl. The buckle was purchased from the fabric store and painted a dark gold.

I used my cosworx rose wig in the two tone blonde for the Phoebe style hair she is revealed to have at the end. If I find a nice a brown wig I will reshoot this one with the Teri look and add the glasses in.

The elf ears were bought at a theatrical shop. I had to spirit gum them on. Next time I wear them I will make sure to invest in latex to adhere them and blend the seamlines in better (as the package suggested). With the help of my friend Steph, we blended foundation onto the ears to match my skin tone.

I made this costume awhile ago and just got around to getting photograph's now. The reason being that snow has been sparing during winter seasons. I felt the snow was crucial for the Christmas appeal. Thanks to IcePhoenix for braving the cold for these awesome shots!

Personal Thoughts:

After watching the movie and catching a glimpse of this santa suit I knew I had to make it. I don't have any holiday themed outfits. This was a good one to start with XD
