I want to cosplay Persephone, played by the always spectacular Monica Bellucci in Matrix Reloaded. The problem is that if I want to be completely screen accurate and perfectionist (and I always try to be), the dress has to be made of latex.
Latex for clothing is a material that is not sewn... It is prepared in sheets of the appropriate thickness, going from liquid to solid, and it is patterned with temperature and glued, not sewn. And then it has several final chemical treatises for resistance, flexibility and gloss that are very difficult to reproduce domestically.
I've considered sewing it myself in another material like vinyl or lycra fabric, but it won't look the same at all.
So here I am consulting custom latex dress companies to order a replica of the cream-colored Persephone's dress. A commission like this is not cheap, but The Matrix is one of my favorite movies and I've been wanting to do that cosplay for ages, I don't want to wait more... So stay tuned to this Vampi-blog because I'll keep you informed here about all the progress with my first ever latex dress made to measure β€οΈ
