Character: Fleshmaiden Series: Alice Madness Returns When: Supanova Sydney Sunday 2012 (Best group - Whoo!) Photographer: (THANK YOU!) Costume made, worn by and picture edit:
Special thanks to for helping me with wig styling (at a ridiculous hour in the morning...)
This costume was time consuming but incredibly fun to make! My bedroom was filled with red tentacles for 3 months...
When my friend decided to organise this group I knew Fleshmaiden was the one for me - I love the weird/wonderful/crazy! Each blood vessel/tentacle was individually sewn, stuffed, sewn to the dress, painted with paint then smothered in latex. Two layers of latex gave the dress a good shine/freshly butchered look however it smelled quite powerfully...
I have to admit to a little alternation of this image. I forgot that latex contracted when it dried so my knee length dress became considerably more revealing after latexing... So I've lengthened the skirt to its proper length again.

I fell in love with this strange meaty dress and had to give it a go
It was so much fun making it 'fresh' looking!!
It is a rather crazy costume.... but I love the crazy!!
