Duchess Dreams and Thinking Steampunk
Aug. 14th, 2008 04:13 pmI don't know about others, but I've wasted entirely too much time today drooling over the new version of the Dutchess movie website. All I know is...must...recreate...the...drunken dress. Oooooh!!
The dress looks even better at the website. The silk is much more of a red color--and just fantasticulous! Hat toss to
lisotchka for posting this morning that the site had been marvelously enhanced!
Meanwhile, I've started preparing for Saloncon. I am thinking of making two outfits, including one steampunk effort. While I totally get into the Victorian aesthetic, I'm having a slight concern about this. I like the industrial side to it--but things like clockwork cotton seems somewhat cliched to me. It will be interesting to see what I come up with... Right now, I'm playing with making a bustle skirt out of ribbon organza. I'm not sure though....
