Another piece of Bani complete! (mostly)

It’s pinned on instead of glued and my glasses are wrong, but this is pretty much the look! I’m considering bringing the four middle pieces into a four-strand braid and then sewing in some beads, but this will do for now.

(I really hate working with hair, and beard hair in particular is something awful (yes this is real beard hair) so it’s 50/50 on whether I pick it back up and finish it before DragonCon. 😛 )

holy HECK, this is brilliance itself!! AHH BANI!

4 hours, two x-men movies, and lots of pauses to watch mystique being badass. I give you: the complete and beautifully lined bodice to Bani’s tunic!

There is gonna be more boob in this outfit than I expected, oops XD but other than that it all went according to plan and I am very pleased! Next time I have a weekend free to sew I will finish up the skirt tail, and after that everything is just decorative. I’ve got loads of teal beads that need to go places and leather for bracelets…and of course, the beard. And the hairpiece, which broke as we were drilling it and is currently in glue-and-vise therapy. Ah, crafting 🙂

Received my custom Georgian style corset from Historical Designs
today! I can finally start sewing the tunic and apron that will go over
these garments. The chemise and bloomers have been done for months XD

‪Also, despite the drastic silhouette change, it’s interesting to note that my bust/waist/hips measurements remain pretty much the same as when unconstrained! It just looks super different ;P

*SQUEAKS IN HAPPINESS* ohhhh my GOD houkakyou, that corset is awesome, the colours suit perfectly with the pants, the undershirt sits so well (THAT SILHOUETTE!) Oh gosh, it’s all coming together, ljshdgfjsafda this is going to look AMAZING

…we’ll see how this goes. colors might get switched around but the palette is ~OFFICIAL~ courtesy of Our Lady Dets so that ain’t changing. Expect the clothing to change a bit though, it always does. I’ve never had to build around a weird shape like the corset before so it’ll be a pretty flexible process.
