Baltimore Comic Con is back– now with three days of awesome! Bria’s going to be attending as press and focusing on that for the most part but will still be wandering around in costume since a few of her favs will be in attendance.
What’s a costumer to do when she’s done with her costumes over a week and a half early, has a relatively light costume schedule, and has a free Saturday? Do a build in under 10 hours obviously.
To be fair, I had been thinking my way through the construction of this costume for a while now simply because I thought it would be fun. The jacket and the grey belt took about six hours of work and I’m pretty happy with how they look! The only thing I would change would be to go back and figure out a way to build the red stripe into the fabric instead of top stitching it on. Oh, and include a rank insignia.
I’ll be honest: the other reason I made and wore this was because it felt so wrong NOT to bring a Winter costume to the convention… and yes I did flip through my X-Wing omnibuses to make sure that it was canon that she wore this!

Thank you to Brandyn for taking pictures!
Do you ever just.
Yeah.
(We definitely danced all night, or as long as the night let us.)
