Did You Miss Me?

You've probably noticed my absence (Once again)

Wondered what I was doing?

Goofing off.


And making this.

Stage Version of Eponine's Outfit - Les Miserables

And this hat



I made the costume to wear to opening night of Les Miserables, and the costume is based off of Eponine's outfit. Eponine's outfit as seen on Broadway and other stage productions, her movie outfit is quite a bit different.

The hat is also based off of it, but I made it to sell, because I do not wear tan/beige hats on account of my hair color. It'd clash. My friend Rebekah was kind enough to model this one for me.

  1. That is such a nice costume Amanda! I love it!!!! How long did it take you to make it? It's so beautiful!

    1. It didn't take me very long. About 1 hour for the hat, 2 or 3 for the skirt and 1 for creating the shirt and another 1/2 for ripping everything up and dirtying it.

    2. It paid off! Very nicely done! Who's the gal wearing the hat?

  2. Wow, nice job! That looks great. Now that the opening night is done, where else would you wear it? And did everyone who attended come in costume?

    1. Tracey, no, no one else wore a costume.

      I could wear it to Ren fests or just for fun - it's surprisingly comfy.
