I need help with my next cosplay!

I'm gonna do Columbia From the Rocky Horror Picture Show so I was wondering if anyone has some pattern peices I could borrow??

I just really need a pattern for the jacket she wears

Sorry, this is in the wrong place.
I will move it to cosplay > cosplay help and critique.
Please make sure you put things in the right place. The marketplace category is the only place where you can sell and buy things - not to ask to borrow pattern pieces, unless you're specifically here to BUY pattern pieces.
Thank you.

Thanks

That's alot of sequins......

PS I have Rocky Horror and Shock Treatment (The sequal) XD
I don't get the last bit

Let's do the TIIIIIME WAAAARP AGAAAAAIN -warbles badly-

By Minato_mori. 29/06/09, 06:24 am

the sequins are copious but that is probably the only way i know of ^^;;

you dont get shock treatment or the end of rocky horror?
i didnt like shock treatment. it was weird that dame edna was in it

By Olli. 29/06/09, 08:50 am

Zomg! you know shock treatment!!! You're the first one who has actually heard of it and seen it lol

Hmmm I think buying a waist coat and then gluing sequins on it sounds good

By Minato_mori. 29/06/09, 08:56 am

yeah i never got the game show concept.

you could sew each sequin on *tedious i know* if it
has a hole in the middle and sew it from the middle hole to the top
of the sequin and then overlap the previous sewn sequin with another
so you dont see the thread ^^ unless you just use gold thread to
sew.

By Olli. 29/06/09, 09:01 am

O.O I wish I was that patient! There's random glue stuff that is washable and all that. I'll try to find that instead

And it would of been better if Brad and Janet were the original actors

heh. I did Riff Raff at the embassy theatres rocky horror night.

Presumably, you want to make Columbias yellow and black tailcoat, right? I'm quite certain you could buy pre-sequinned fabric at you local fabic store.

By Olli. 29/06/09, 10:03 am

I shall have to look when I go there during the holidays

And yea that tail coat. I love it. And the shorts and top lol

At Kutwells Fabric on Columbo St (opossite Southcity) they have some gold sequined fabrics for $10/m
As far as I know, you can't buy rainbow sequin fabric like her vest, the closest I've seen was $50US. You could sew/glue sequins on though?

By **JVCA**. 29/06/09, 04:54 pm

You can buy presequined fabric - your best bet is trying dance fabric stores. I don't know what the costume looks like but is there something suitable on either of these pages? http://www.angelfabrics.co.nz/angel+fabrics/catalogue.php?cat=Non-Stretch%20Fabrics&subcat=Sequin%20Knit or http://www.dancefabrics.co.nz/shop/Sequins/Sequin+Disco+Dot+-+3mm.html?ppp=32

By firecat70. 29/06/09, 05:06 pm

Wow! The multi-sequined stuff on angelfabrics actually looks really good for her waistcoat.
I was going to cosplay as her for a RockyHorror night at uni, but couldn't find material for the waistcoat, then forgot to go to the showing at all XD Double fail

By Olli. 30/06/09, 02:43 am

Yay! thanks! I'll try to get the material for the waist coat and get rainbow sequins to glue onto the top!
