Oh! I've got something like that first one.

 

Well, not the *whole* first one. Just the belt.

 

Not like it at all, really.

 

Bu you did remind me I've got a blue brocade sport corset somewhere in the wardrobe, not that that's all that space opera-y.

 

I did wear it in a Fourth of July parade once, with a red top and a white skirt.

@Pingo: yup that was an old British show called UFO.

 

Maybe their theory was that long hair in low gravity was too much maintenance. So moonbase personnel wore buzz cuts. But the female personnel wanted to look like girls, therefore the wigs. It's a bit boring stuck up on the moon for a six month rotation, so **Purple = Fun? IDK.

 

 

**(That's why Dr. Bedlam's hat is purple, yes?)

I'll just leave this here:

And just go ahead and search 'Dr who corset' while you are over there

 

Definitely. I just have to be careful about where i get my corsets. They can't just be for fashion but have to be for function as well. I have terrible back pain (For obvious...reasons....) SO if I'm going to wear a corset for at least 10 hours at a con or around the house/work that thing needs to be spiral steel boned. There was a reason why I was in my blue corset for longer periods of time than my brown one. @[email protected] 

 

 

I DO adore loriann designs (I follow her on facebook) And she's incredibly nice and willing to give advice on anything. She's willing to make whatever you want. 9/10 I'll have an outfit similar to this, but her corsets are not double boned. 

 

 

 

My rant is just for other females that might be wanting a costume next year and I did A LOT of research on corsets. For corset advice: Lucy's Corsetry is a must.

 

for OTR corsets (Off the Rack) My Number one go to is Orchard Corsets. They give you so much information and they are inexpensive for off the rack corsets. They are also VERY well made. Both of my corsets are from this place. 

 

Secondly is Timeless - Trends, which are of slightly better quality and a larger variety of colors and styles but the price is typically over 89$ not including shipping but still a place I'd like to get a red or blue corset to go with my star trek theme....(Hint hint Mr. Melons.)

 

Pendragon Corsets had a very nice selection but strangely a lot of their selection resembles the Timeless Trends pictures so....that's as far as I went. @[email protected] 

 

 

The fun thing about costume making is being able to add your own thing. I'm planning on a bright red or a blue corset and getting the big star trek logo for the right side of my shirt   with a skirt and what not.

 

For doctor who, there are Tardis corsets, There was a lovely lady that wore  a nice tardis dress at the con. (I didn't catch her name she won the big voted award though) 

 

The fun thing about being someone from doctor who is the near unlimited number of characters that are in that show. I'd like to be Elizabeth the 10th from the show as well.

That would be Jessica Rich I believe. She was one of the very talented artists guests

 

edit: pay no attention to the samuraiJack's. I don't know why they are there, and I can't kill them

So now that the con's over, we non-attendees are curious and want pictures.
