Happy Halloween everyone! The roaring 20′s have returned & I made a costume to match! Hope you all get lots of treats & have a great time out there tonight.
In the realm of theme parties, few costume choices can rival the enduring popularity of the 1920s flapper costume. Evocative of the glamorous 1920s, this attire remains an evergreen choice for individuals seeking to transport themselves and their guests to an era of exuberance and liberation. With its distinctive style and rich cultural significance, the flapper costume continues to captivate party-goers, making it a timeless and versatile option for any occasion.
I am once again putting Draxum in a dress, this time on based on 1920s flapper dresses.
[I.D. Draxum from ROTTMNT. He has one hand on his hip, the other hand held up in a loose fist. He looks off to the side and frowns, pinning his ears back slightly. He is wearing a blueish purple sleeveless mid-thigh length dress that has a serrated hem lined with silver fringe and silver patterns across the dress, as well as a thin headband with a feather and several beads coming off of it. The waist area of the dress has several large silvery circles, the middle one being the largest and the others diminishing in size as they go farther from the center. Draxum has several scars on his arms and legs, as well as pale, lightning-like patterns reaching from his fingertips to halfway down his forearms. The background is pale pink and features a dark grey art noveau pattern, which is filled in around the edges with blue, purple, orange, red, and yellowish green. End I.D.]
if you're interested in set design this page has really cool images from the company that created concept art for the show. what's particularly noteworthy is this titled "fairplay revamp to azalea" where you see the transformation the space went through as it changed ownership from tom anderson to louis.
before:
after:
when paired with the actual map of basin st. in which most of the luxury brothels were owned by women saved for the fairplay saloon owned by the real tom anderson, it gives us a fascinating look into louis's aspirations in buying that particular venue and altering it from 1910s mojo dojo casa house to the high femme second image. he had to pretend to be a tough guy on liberty street because it was rough and dirty but here?? his moral rationalization in ep2 about bringing people like brick with him to this higher end brothel on a street where mostly all the owners were women is perfectly reflected in the design evolution.
My outfit design for @leidensygdom ‘s OC Outfit Exchange!! This is @semageon ‘s wonderful Aasimar Penny who I just fell in love with and as I am also having a hyperfixation circle around to musicals including Chicago I absolutely HAD to give the 1920s flapper outfit a go! Especially with an eye covering asked for EE!
Base and OC (Penny) by @semageon , oufit design by me! Penny and Sema use no pronouns!
I wish I could have done more for this event because it was absolutely incredible and I received THREE designs for my OCs but it’s uni assignment period and I’m fucking slammed (especially bc I still TECHNICALLY HAVE COMMISSIONS AND BDAY PRESENTS TO GET DONE AAA) hoping I can make up for it next time round (or possibly the time after I’ll be in final year next year OH GOD) and go totally wild. If it’s ever in the summer I’LL BE PULLING OUT THE STOPS!
