I WILL TAKE THE CHASE DRESS. Seriously, if you haven't gotten an offer yet, let me know.

If any of the offers fall through, I would definitely love to purchase the Cranberry Arwen dress! But if you could let me know how much it would cost to mail to Australia, that would be splendid!

Currently I am writing to someone but I will let you know. As for shipping to Australia, it looks like it would be about 70-100USD (looking at USPS, UPS, and FedEx, if you know another company feel free to point me in that direction).

Found you from Maggie's Facebook post. My two cents: I do commissions and I think your prices should be higher! This can't even be cost of materials, right? I ought to buy them all to resell them but I won't do that because I'm not a douche bag. :)

Good luck selling them and I hope things get better for you! If you had a Mourning Gown I would be all over that. These are stunning.

Also, I'm sorry that you have to sell them. I had to sell my Padme Packing Gown when money was tight a few years ago and I still cringe whenever I think about it. I have no regrets, because it needed to be done, but it's hard to part with beloved items. I will post this on my Facebook to boost your signal.

Thank you. and I occasionally take commissions, it makes me cry to sell these (even harder at the prices) but sadly, it must be done. Thank you for the signal boost.

Hi there, I came from Tumblr but couldn't find an email address for you ANYWHERE! So here's me using my old ancient LJ account, LOL.

I'd like to give you $100 for the Chase Dress and pick it up at Dragon*Con, if you haven't already finalized the deal with someone else! Please email me at littlelemming3@hotmail.com if that's doable. Thank you so much!!

Hi, do you have the exact measurements for the green Eowyn gown? Shoulder length, bust, waist and hip?

lordofhaladin July 20 2013, 11:23:27 UTC
certainly! it was made by me for me and my measurements are:

Shoulder to wait: 16"
bust:35"
hip:37"
waist:32"
shoulder width: 16"

a friend of mine once tried it on and she has a bust of:38"
waist:35-37"

it fit her as well.
