Ok so the dress is called "Sleeveless" in movie terms, but shes choked out Padme on Mustafar to me Razz

THIS IS NOT MINE. BUT I NEED REFERENCE

I don't have anyone here to tell me how much I messed up on this costume so ill welcme any critique.

My main concerns

The jewel piece:
Is it close enough? WOW there is so much detail
Is the gold alright?
Should I make it just a hair bigger?

Pants
Are they NOT white enough?

Anyone else anyone else see?

Awesome job

But I do believe the jewel needs to be bigger Sad

and the trousers are fitted more like leggings or at least thats what they look to me in the movie

Initial thoughts seeing the side by side:
-Buckle gold piece looks a bit small
-Hangs a bit farther over your shoulder
-Flare/drape on yours looks like it hangs differently and "flips" outward; maybe too much flare, needs to be fitted a tiny bit more?
-Pants should be legging-style and maybe a different shade?

To my eye, boots are taller, but look fine, arm sleeves look great collar looks good, hair looks great.

Smile

I've not done this costume, so maybe someone who has could chime in?

You guys rock! *makes those changes*
I see everything you guys are talking about.

I can make the jewel larger. I'll just add a bit more girth behind it!

All the rest I can fix quick!

Hunting for new leggings

Your speed on these costume floors me, Dawn! I agree with all the comments above, and it looks like you're really churning through updates!

The one suggestion I have is to give the tail of your braid a bit of a haircut. Right now it looks like extensions that are all the same length. If you look at natural hair at the end of a braid, it sort of tapers rather than pom-poms. Some shaping trimming could help your braid look more like real hair and less like a hairpiece.

Overall, lovely work!

I love the hair and arm sleeves very well done. And all though the mirror shot wasn't great it seemed that you got the fitting on the shirt straps fitting better.

I think this is coming along really well and looks awesome! Love seeing the progress pictures!

Looking nice, one thought though, there should be embroidery just on the left sleeve/glove. I got mine accepted just a short time ago...

Nice job
