Lord of the Rings Costume

Welcome to LOTR Costume.  We hope you enjoy our research project on the Lord of the Rings costumes. 

When we first saw Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring, we were amazed by what we saw on the screen.  He and his crew have created one of the most complete screen universes of all times recreating the story of a quest to destroy The One  Ring.  

We're here to study everything about the costumes from fabric to patterns to metalworking. We look at every thing from elvish costume to hobbit costumes.  The LOTR costumes are just too fantastic not to research!    

Note this is a Costume Research site not a Fan web.  As such we do things a bit differently.  Check our FAQ if you have questions.
