Daenerys Targaryen Khaleesi Qarth Gown

Seems like it has been a life time since I posted anything new!!  It has been such a busy summer!  Back in August my daughter asked me to make her a costume for the Boston Comic Con, she wanted to be Khaleesi.  I did do a costume for her that she love, but I wanted to do another one out of a different material and make it more of a replica of the costume from the show (Game of Thrones).  So here is the costume I made for my Etsy shop:

 

 

Within a week of listing the costume a wonderful woman named Melissa from Illinois purchased a custom made Khaleesi costume for herself.  I was so excited yesterday when she contacted me to let me know she had worn it to an event; her is what she had to say:

 

Christy,

Just want to let you know that I have worn the costume to an event already. I wore it to the Bristol Rennaissance Faire in Wisconsin. I was recognized as Khaleesi by so many people and was told how beautiful the costume is. I am attaching a pic of me wearing the costume :) I will be wearing it for Halloween and many more future events to come! Thank you again! :)

She was also kind enough to give me permission to repost the picture of her wearing the costume!!

 

 

 

 

Doesn't she look beautiful!! Thank you Melissa!

 

So today I am off to work on a Cersei  costume idea and as soon as I have it done I will post some more pics!
