Peter Pan - Wendy Costume


I have a daughter who is going to be Tinker Bell for Halloween. So, I thought we could have a family theme around Peter Pan. I'll be Wendy and my son will be the Crocodile. This Wendy costume was oh-so-simple and inexpensive. Especially when I found the fabric in the bargain bin. Try and get a heavy drappey type fabric. This dress is modifying a ballet pattern - Simplicity 5138 Style A. Modifying the shoulder (taking out the spaghetti strap) and adding a puffy sleeve with elastic. There is NO zipper or buttons. Elastic at the empire, with lining at the bust. Add a bit of Pixie Dust, think happy thoughts and you're off!

  1. Okay, so this might be weird but are you able to make another one of these? I am looking for a Wendy costume for my little man's 1st birthday in early March. I am having such a hard time finding one that isn't over priced. Or maybe you would want to sell this one? :) Just thought I'd ask!! Threemarie24ATgmailDOTcom

    Thanks!

  2. Thanks for asking, anyone is always welcome to e-mail their questions. I would love to talk to anyone interested in me recreating any of my costumes. I hope that anyone who uses my costume ideas and suggestions, e-mails me pictures of their finished work. I'd love to see them. We could put them up in a group of Inspired work. What do you think?

  3. It would be my daughter's dream to have this dress. She is a size adult 10-12. I would be very interested to know if you are willing to reproduce the dress and how much you would charge. Such a beautiful design!
