Your Fantasy Costume

Gypsy witch designs is a lovely site that features an unique collection of top hats, from burlesque, victorian,  to gothic, Mad Hatter´s and even steampunk and pirate  models. It has also some formal and wedding models for more (or less) traditional customers..  It has alsom some additional accesories like gloves fitting for example with the laced up steampunk inspired top hats. The gothic models are full of spiderweb and tulle  with a very classy “widow” mood.  And there are also some striped model that you would point out of My fair Lady movie. All of them are really lovely and worth a check!

We made another article about Top Hats maybe more in the mood of  Leprechauns and Alice’s Mad Hatter, but equally unique and lovely. If you want to refresh your mind and options, read our sister article about top hats here:

Peter Stone is one  of the largest collection faerie sterling silver jewelry. I particularly like their celtic, wicca and fairy-fantasy collection. They feature also a collection of reproductions of some well known fantasy artists into lovely pendants, earrings and other jewellry items.  The design above is called the “tree of life” one of my favorites. Below you can see some other examples:

Compass pendant: they have several pendants with compass  that I  highly recommend for PIRATE and STEAMPUMK costumes

Ravenswood leather is a wonderful site that features all sorts of costumes made of leather. Prices can look a bit high at the first sight, but we’re talking about really fine quality. They also feature a section to teach you how to take care of the pieces you buy in the store. But it doesn’t only feature the most amazing pirate (also ren and futuristic looking)  coats for men (and women too) I’ve seen so far, there you can find all sorts of accesories from belts, to gauntlets, bracers and pirate hats to become a real pirate.They feature the pieces in several colors from plain and classic black to several shades of brown, green and even white.

Above: some examples of accesories

Among my favourites I’d mention the jerkins and saberist jerkins for men. I think every guy should have one of these.

There’s also a girl version, that i’d hightlight in its “dress version” as in the picture below. Some of the  women bodices look very “Hercules” or “Xena” like.

Moresca is a New York based company specialized in fairy-tale, fantasy and renaissance costumes. I had the chance to see the wonderful bodices, garments, gowns and accesories when I attended as performer to the faeriecon last 2009.

I fell in love with the seagull short bodice but I wasn’t fast enough! people grabbed them in one day… as lovely as they were. I’ll probably will be getting this one for a videoclip. I think it’s heavenly adorable. It belongs to the MORESCA  “seagull” collection, though I think of an “artic wolf” too and that’s the way I want to characterize myself with it.

For those bellydancers and girls with a body that can provide grace to this, there were absolutely stunning tribal pieces like the own below. A fellow performer used a red set and she was looking absolutely great.

In the fairy ball also the faery bodices (that you can actually order in different colors, brocades and  floral ornaments) were pretty popular and despite sharing design they were all different and certainly customized and unique…  This is on the ohhh wouldn’t mind list too.

Oh I just needed to share also  pouch like this one… they’re so faery. They have a wealth of wonderful bags, so pretty that I’d not been able to pick one!

Talking about bigger things, there are also some unique and one of a kind items… and they’re indeed showing they are…!!  From simple (yet very sexy) hooded velvet capes and dresses to fairytale luxurious models.

Above: The “Mega” model  made from a beautiful color range of jacquards.

Revealing, with monastic overtones. The one a man tends to get for his woman. The waistband laces firmly in the back, under the full length cape. Generous hood. Dry clean.
