Small Halloween Costume Update

Last week I ordered 8 yards of purple (official color name is blackberry) stretch cotton sateen.  They said it would take 2 weeks to come in.  In the meantime I have cut my pattern & mock-up pieces.  I have them darted & gathered & ready to be fitted.  This week I plan (with the help of my hubby) to fit the pieces & have them ready when my fabric arrives.  It will be very nice to jump right into cutting my fabric when I get it.

On a related note, I have all my jewelry (earrings, necklace, brooch) & a pair of really cute mitts.  I still need to buy details for the dress, purple circle lenses & a pair of very basic flats to wear to the parties (my repros aren't made for outdoor wear). 

I think for the most part I am in a good place with my costume.  Pics to come once I start cutting my fabric.
