Sorry for the picture quality - but I've got a new hat. Problem is I don't think I've got anything to go with it

And quite a lovely hat it is! I do see a steampunk ninja of sorts in my mind's eye. Hm.

I went to a con this past weekend and got a few pictures. There was a Tenth Doctor cosplayer there and I got a picture with him, the Tardis and an adipose. <3 I was screaming on the inside. Also, a picture with another steampunk, and a few of myself with the Tardis. I look confused in all of them because I didn't expect the picture when it was taken. o.o  With the Doctor. <3  The Tardis!  With Professor Fate. How on earth did you get a stuffed adipose?

Was doing a photoshoot for, well, the whole costume mercenary business and as the stars aligned (blond friend, correct garment) we ended up with the following: I am very pleased with them, but I'm not sure many would believe me when I say mimicking the titular character of the Girl Genius webcomic wasn't at the forefront of my mind now that we've done the photos.... More photos of the unintentional Agatha Heterodyne Cosplay on the blog.

@ costumemercenary - Very nice indeed. Ever though of doing similar for a man's waistcoat - maybe mixing a classic Victorian cut with a the rings, pockets, etc?

The lovely gentleman dressed as the Doctor asked the woman running the crochet table if she would crochet an adipose for him, and she did! She's going to start selling them next con.

For Danbury Shakes, haha, i love the hat, it has a military feel to it but its different in the style, especially having a brim that points down like that, id say it would go well with any engineer style outfit

We've done a waistcoat, but more of a long more 18th Century one, glimpsed on a hanger here. I'd love to do one if someone is interested in commissioning one, but there are no immediate plans in that direction.

It's a Russian military cap called a Syriyka - apparently worn in Syria and Afghanistan. The brim has an "OK, I might not be able to see, but at least it scratches my nose" feel to it. The lower half is buttoned on, with out it, it just looks like a cap. I've just realised I had this bit on inside out, it looks a lot better having it the right way round.

I can't comment, your mom's asked me not to. Seriously Wilhelmina, these look great - I just have to recalibrate my screen for soooo much pink

Ms. Wilhelmina, I must say, I am not normally a fan of pink in the least, but that shade and style on you... well, cute and irressistable come to mind. I shall henceforth retire to my bunk.
