Into the West Hall of Fire Masquerade, Oscars 2004
Picture hyperlinks will open larger shots of the costumes.
On February 28, 2004 as part of Oscar festivities a
grand Hall of Fire was held at the Hollywood Athletic Club as part of a
wonderful Into the West
celebration. LOTR Costume folks ran a "Masquerade Lite" as part of the
evenings festivities.
We judged at two different styles of costuming.
Those that were constructed by the contestant (and family and friends) and
those that were put together by scrounging closet and thrift stores or where
the contestant did the research and hired the sewing.
Below, we list the awards in reverse order and have
also included some general photos of costume folks at the Hall of Fire
event.
