My friend ~avi17 is going to DragonCon next week. She commissioned this dress so she can go as Galadriel from "The Lord of the Rings."

I used Simplicity pattern 9891 as a base, but improvised on the sleeves, hem, and belt. I made the sleeves longer and created a trailing hem. I also tacked the collar down into a better shape.

The fabric on the dress has a slight crinkle to it and both the dress and sleeve fabrics have a slight shimmer. The belt is white ribbon with a silver leaf and scroll design.

This is absolutely gorgeous!
You are so talented!
I'm still attempting to figure out my options for Galadriel. If you don't mind me asking, how much did this all cost? (I'm weighing my options for this cosplay)

Thank you so much! All together it was about $80, but that was with discounts.
