Thanks! yeah, I don't like the color either, but you can get it in other colors. I'm thinking dark green or light blue...but that's a while away.

I joked aroudn once that if I didn't have a date for one of my proms, I was going to get a dress that looked like a tux, or just go in a tux. We'll see.

Legolas's Lothlorien costume would be a neat prom outfit

Liviaine · 03-09-2002, 10:22 PM

It would.

I think the gown would look best in a light blue, as you said, or a light green. Something pale and pretty.

TinuvielChild · 03-09-2002, 10:39 PM

i would love that gown in a forest green, or maybe a rust red. light blue is a wonderful color but it just doesn't work for me. ooooh! does it come in gold? like an amber color, dark gold? cuz that would be really lovely, or silver.

Starr Polish · 03-09-2002, 10:43 PM

You could probably get in in grey or amber, you'd have to talk to the person that makes it about the available colors, since it's 'panne velvet'. Ahhh...I can't wait until prom next year

TinuvielChild · 03-09-2002, 10:46 PM

now i have to go back to that site and stare at that gown for another ten minutes, visualizing myself in it and large quantities of hot guys drooling over me...

Liviaine · 03-10-2002, 09:14 PM

Grey, amber, red, and green are all nice.

Except...what was with the stuff Legolas was wearing in Lothlorien? I mean, it looked good, but why was he wearing it? There really was no purpose there, and it seemed rather out of place.

that outfit was under his grey green ( i love that colour BTW) traveling gear, you can see the arms when hes leaving rivendell and down the river andiun.
it's like he took off his jacket in lorien, and was quite comfy. i liked that affect... made me feel at peace to, thought the shaking from the excitement of of watching hadn't stopped yet.

Thanks. Yeah, that makes sense. I did see that under his jacket. Oh, dear, this does make my costume-making more complicated. . .I'm trying to make a Legolas costume for opening day of TTT in December--my friends and I are trying to get nine of us together so we can each be a member of the Fellowship. Now we just need a Frodo and a Gimli. . .but back to the subject. . .I love that Lothlorien outfit! I wish I could have it (my own, thanks, not Orlando Bloom's costume that he actually wore!) for prom or something! (seeing as I have to look nice) And yeah, grey green IS such a wonderful color!

Vardasoroniel · 03-11-2002, 04:09 AM

can anyone tell me where a closeup pic of the lothlorien leaf cape clasp can be found?

my friend and i are making elven capes to wear to the next movie and want to make the clasp to put on it.

Gorhiriel · 03-11-2002, 05:33 PM

Rosie-lass, we don't have proms in AUS either.
The costumes ROCKED!!! esp. Legolas's Lorien gear... drool.

TinuvielChild · 03-11-2002, 06:23 PM

don't know where to find a close-up of the leaf clasp, but you might ask LuthienTinuviel - she's certainly seen the movie enough times! what material are you using for the cloaks? i think that's an awesome idea! also, what are you using for a pattern? since this is a costume thread, could we post patterns for the costumes that people are making, with pictures? cuz i think this is a really cool idea! now to round up my two hardcore Tolkien fan friends and start sewing...

LuthienTinuviel · 03-11-2002, 07:34 PM

look for pictures of the hobbits after lorien on the river andiun.
the face shots go low enough to get a nice picture of the leaf clasps.
hmm maybe i should make a clasp in jewelry class, i already have plans for nenya....

TinuvielChild · 03-11-2002, 11:32 PM

*jaw drops in amazement and jealousy* ok, now i have to hit you over the head with the pommel of Glamdring

that is so not fair! not only do you get jewelry class, but you get to choose what you make?!?!?!? but yeah, i remember seeing the leaf clasps over and over and studying them every time i saw them on the screen

***anduin*** · 03-12-2002, 01:33 AM

A thumbnail of the Lorien leaf clasp can be found here.

Eruviel Greenleaf · 03-12-2002, 01:35 AM

Hear, hear, Tinuviel Child-not fair!!!! I wish I could do that. . .I would so like to make Nenya--my own version, not what they did in the movie. It was pretty, but I imagined something else. And those leaf broaches-I must find one somewhere!!! I'll need it for Dec. 18th, with the Fellowship I'm gathering. We'll all need them, come to think of it.

TinuvielChild · 03-12-2002, 06:04 PM

danke schoen, anduin!! large quantities of gratitude! now, does anyone know how they are fastened?

Eruviel Greenleaf · 03-12-2002, 10:38 PM

Thanks, Anduin!!! It's so beautiful. . .must get somehow. . .

Oh, Starr-polish, that website with the dress you want. . .(which, by the way, is a lovely dress, I hope you get it

) Have you seen the bracers they have? Y'know, the lovely wrist things listed under seperates? I want those SO much!!!!!! They'd be perfect for my costume. . .I think I'm going to get them--and it's all thanks to you for posting that web site! Thank you!

Starr Polish · 03-12-2002, 10:55 PM

I HAVE seen the bracers, and I LOVE them! I am so obsessed with medieval/renassaince clothing. I am definately attending ren and medieval faires and having a ren wedding!

Eruviel Greenleaf · 03-12-2002, 11:04 PM

I LOVE medieval faires! But I generally go straight to the weapons. . .I'm such a violent person (heh. heh.). . .but they are SO much fun! And the clothes are nice too. . .
