But do good for the 501st and to be honest I have questions, and probably stupid ones lol. Im looking into helping my wife build a Leia costume to wear at our troops with the everglades squad and I do not know where to begin! I though building a TK was hard but you guys and gals take it to a whole new level of awesome here! Can anyone assist in helping a fellow costumer out with where to begin?thanks!

Sure, we can! Smile

But first we need to know what kind of Leia costume we are talking about.
Does she have any favorites? Do any of you have experience sewing or help, who has experience sewing? Do you have a specific timeframe? (Some costumes take more time than others to do).

There are sites besides RL where you can find information about the various Leia costumes, but first you need to figure out which one(s) you want to look closer at. Looking at them all would be quite a mouthful.

well she will definatley not do the slave leia, despite my efforts to convince her lol. J?k I know theyre not really good for the family oriented events that I typically do at the 501st. I cant get pictures to work here for some reason but she favors ANH leia in the white gown and white boots. I have an E-11 for her as well. We have acess to a sewing machine and know many people that can assist with that. No time frame either

Well, the classic Senatorial Leia is a great one to start with as it's one that's easy to move about in and it hasn't got too many 'funny' things about it. Smile

And everybody recognise senatorial Leia.

When you have any more questions, just ask us.
