Eowyn´s Green Gown


Ulrike

Fabrics & materials

	About 7 yards of silk/rayon taffeta in green and gold. This was probably the most difficult fabric about this costume and I searched quite a long time. It is used for the entire underdress and the lining of sleeves and skirt.
	About 5 yards of mossy green cotton velvet. I tried my best to “destroy” the fabric, but the pile of my velvet was not high enough. Now the fabric has not the exact look of the original but it still works J
	2 yards of the “original” trim in black and gold. I am so happy with this trim, because it looks so beautiful and I want to thank Maggie from “costumersguide” for finding it!
	Hooks and eyes for the closing of the underdress.
	Braided cords for the tight innersleeves of the underdress in green and gold.
	Golden yarn to embroider the trim.

General Description:

The costume has an underdress with tight innersleeves, which are corded with braided cords. On the overdress there are wide outersleeves, which are lined with the underdress fabric. Along the neckline I have attached the bullion trim and the dress has no darts or princess seams. In the front of the overdress there is a big gap and a front panel.

Accessories:
