Alice in Wonderland costume












































I constructed an Alice in Wonderland Costume for a Friends themed Hen do I was invited to. I used a pattern from a shop which I had to alter round the shoulders, waist and lengthen the skirt. I had to make a pattern for the sleeves that were double the size of round the arm holes. This made them look puffy. I thought the Peter pan collar was the right style for the character and so was the petticoat. I researched different styles of aprons for my costume. I added a button to fasten the back of it and exaggerated the bow by making the pattern of it narrow then enlarging the width.
