I can't remember if I've already mentioned this, but there's a trick in ballet to keep your ribbons secure for a while: Hair spray... Do all the normal knots then coat it is hairspray, it makes it a little stiff, but basically acts as flexable-light-glue and keeps all the knots etc in place and it should just break up when you want to take them off. However, it would be worth just checking how it looks when you spray the ribbons before-hand it can darken them in patches if you are not spraying evenly. If it means the ribbons stay in place rather than cutting of blood supply to your fingies!

There is a two way mirror for cameras. I know Cherry Wallis has something like what you’re talking about.

I believe they make two-way mirror "film" where you can get a piece of normal glass, put the film on it, and then have a two-way mirror. Perhaps something like that would work for filming?

Beautiful! Makes sense for Padme to have impractical clothes, she's a queen, she has staff to help her in! Is this me saying Nick is your Sabe? 🤔😂

This looks so cute!!!! I kinda wanna make a version with cream/ivory fabric and just wear it in the wild lol like my low-key Star wars sundress for summer.

I hope you come to Fan Expo Boston this year!

I have definitely been sitting here hoping you were going to recreate the meme since you said you were making this costume.

Ok that was awesome and worth all the work you put in. Honestly some of the rebel legion people don't look like the characters very much even with their makeup application and wigs. So I am sure you will be approved for the quality of the outfit as well as the incredible doppelgänger makeup!
Dixie Crowe
2024-04-20 00:45:38 +0000 UTC
This looks amazing, Rachel! Your hard work definitely paid off. I would be surprised if they didn't accept your costume.
Also, that's so cool that you're collabing with Alyson! I can't wait to see that magical duo in action.

Every time you do these makeup transformations I say "I don't understand how she did that" even though I just watched you do it 😅
Kae
2024-04-19 23:06:32 +0000 UTC
Wow. There's a couple of places there in the getting-dressed montage where you hit that Natalie Portman smile and daaamn, good job on the makeup and all, I was sold. Go get 'em!

I would be an absolute menace with those ribbons in public. I'd be whacking people left and right 😂
Maggie Stewart

I love your transformations! It's always uncanny how you can make your face look like other people's faces. Very cool! Great job, and good luck with The Rebel Legion!

Side note, you’re so incredibly talented at makeup! I would have no idea how to even begin a transformation! I’d definitely watch a video on that if you made one

Its crazy! He is a Stormtrooper and had to special order parts, make modifications to fit him (cause he is a little short for a stormtrooper… tee hee.. and yes he has heard the joke a million times)… so much work! You got this! Bravo on learning from your first convention debut of this beauty! 🥰
