As we have set the film in the 1900's I had to find a costume suitable for the time. Of course Lifeline didn't have a 1900's evening dress hanging around so I spend last night, sewing and dyeing some curtain and a cheesecloth skirt to create my costume. Although not quite to period and perhaps a little more pirate than evening dress I'm so happy with the way it turned out.
I started with a few sketches of what I needed the dress to look like..
The curtain and 'hippy' skirt I had to work with thanks to Lifeline.
The dying process, with tea leaves and rose petals.Moana got some great still shots from today to so I could show you our crazy antics and thank goodness we finished filming in the early afternoon as it has just started hailing! As the film will be in sepia tones I have altered the photos so you get a sense of what it will look like.

By the fire reading none other than Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
On the block about to cut up some firewood before the madness begins.All we have left to shoot now are the scenes where we are in the river, so we are waiting a few weeks for the weather to get warmer before tackling these. Well I'm off now to finish my marking before doing some research for Literature tonight (watching a lovely film with my friend Joelene).
Much love, hope everyone is having a lovely weekend x
