Phoenix Comicon 2017 Our Masquerade Progress Photos Valentin, Casey, Jeff, Kamilha, Brenna, Zach, Elizabeth, Sophie, and Taylor (possibly Ashley if 10 people are allowed)
Before we begin We just wanted to let the viewer know that some of the following costumes are showcased on a standard mannequin, therefore due to it being one size, the costumes might not appear that they fit perfectly Otherwise, please enjoy seeing our fun creations!
Jasmine
Aladdin
Aladdin and Jasmine EXPLAINED Jasmine: We used the influences of Disneys Magic Kingdoms Park Jasmine, as well as the Jasmine on Broadway. Brenna wanted to stick to the classic look, but yet wanted to wear something she felt comfortable and beautiful in throughout the day. Taking concepts from the Broadway production, we followed a Renaissance-style pattern, and focused on adding Arabian-themed embroidery. What missing: crown-piece and jewels to the dress Aladdin: We went with a renaissance pattern, and altered it to be more time appropriate. The sleeves are detachable, along with the cape. His chain was handcrafted and painted. We used the movie and Disney's Magic Kingdom's Park Aladdin as our main influence. We added the bits of red to add a royal flare and our own touch to the character Whats missing: hat and shoes
Jafar
Jafar EXPLAINED Jafar was made from a samurai pattern and a steampunk cloak pattern. The hat was crafted from a DIY step-by-step website on Pinterest. The snake on the staff was 3D printed and attached to PVC piping. We used the cartoon as our biggest influence, and added Broadways cape design into the overall look. We figured having a flowing cape with give a neat effect while walking across the stage. Whats missing: the shoulders to the cape have not been attached. We will be using spirit gum and fake haiir to attach a custom made beard and eyebrows.
Genie
Genie (Cont.)
Genie EXPLAINED The Genie was influenced by the California adventures live performance and the Broadway show. We wanted the Genie to be an entertainer during the skit, and have comfortable movement. The pants were made through a womens yoga pattern. There were sequins, beaded, and dyed blue. Originally they were white, and we planned to do a fade dye starting from bottom-up. Unfortunately, the pants slipped off the tub in the middle of the night, and we woke up to fully covered blue pants (we worked with our mistake haha) The jacket is made form a Civil War pattern, but we curved the bottom part with a diagonal cut to have a more theatrical appeal. The Genie does varies magic tricks on the stage, which require his jacket to snap off quickly for quick changes with props. He also has a jaw-movable mask, as an elderly man, which he uses in the beginning of the number. The mask was made by taking a plain plastic white mask and using brads to create a moving jaw system. Whats missing: shoes, hat, rhinestones, and buttons on the jacket. Costumer will be covered in blue airbrush paint and spirit gum/fake hair will be used to create the beard.
The Elephant
The Elephant (cont.)
The Elephant EXPLAINED We are using PVC pipe, wood, and chicken wire to create a life-size papier-m但ch辿 elephant. The elephant is cut into a four piece puzzle, in order to quickly take it apart and set up. We also had to stabilize the base, so Aladdin could come in riding it. The elephant is pushed on wheels, by two hidden actors. At the moment the elephant is not papier-m但ch辿d, in fear that it might rain and ruin the piece.
The Skirts Belly Dancer Belts We used a circle skirt pattern, cut into four layers of white. We then took white tulle with gold glitter, and gold glitter tulle and sewed them together, using a fishing line hem. The fishing line had to be burned in order to give it that stiffness. Since we didnt have the fancy tools, we used a turkey baser as our melting piece Which caught fire But only once! ;-)
The Skirts (cont.) Favorite Design Least Favorite These pictures are examples of how we used the glitter tulle. We only did one layer of tulle, because we began to realize that we were loosing the flowy-ness of the skirt during our dance rehearsal. The tulle was causing the skirt to droop, rather than look full/fluffy. We also realized changing the waist design effected the fluffiness of he skirt as well.
Our Pattern Selection for our Tops
The belts are created out of two panels of fabric. The first is a sheer sequined fabric; the second panel is stitched to a sheer golden fabric, lined with a golden glitter ribbon. Its sewed onto an elastic band (which is hand stitched together in the back), with a beautiful lace trim on the top. On the sides- to the back- is a long tassel trim. It originally was red tassels, but we hand painted them with gold fabric paint, and sealed them with a top coat of acrylic glitter paint. We would like to continue to add more beading to the tassel portion. The Belts
The Peacock
Golden Camel
Peacocks and Camels Explained Camel: Top is made out of a Khaleesi pattern, by using elastic bands that have a glitter embroidery. I made a base of the pattern out of cotton, then use that to formulate my design. I sequined the sides and added a back zipper. The skirt is two panels with an elastic waist-band, and sequins trim. The head dress was red satin roses, spray painted gold, then hand painted with a sheer gold glitter acrylic paint for depth. I hot glued them to a headband, along with left over tulle and kabob sticks, that I dipped in glitter/glue. I also created rave wings (not in photo) using a swing flag pattern from color guard. Wings attach to two 1ft sticks, then wrap around the wrists for security. Whats missing: more jewels will be added and sequins booty- shorts; costumer will be fully covered in gold metallic airbrush paint Peacock: Made from a Yaya Han Pattern, the corset was designed to be very tight fitting. The front of the skirt is just one panel, and left open in the back to create a feather train, along with a peacock embroidered fabric-veil. The veil attaches to the back of the corset and the wrists. Whats missing: headdress and feather-train
Arabian Dancer (#1)
Arabian Dancer (#2 and #3)
Arabian Dancer (#4)
Arabian Dancer (#5)
Each top and costume is designed to make each individual performer feel comfortable and beautiful while theyre on stage. Some of the belts sit higher on the girls that dont want to show to much stomach, while other girls have higher crop-tops to reveal more skin. Each piece was custom made to fit the vision of each girl, in the hopes to make them truly feel like an Arabian princess Why is each top different?
Jewelry Jewelry was various necklaces that we attached through chainmail material and wire. Then we covered the jewels with painters tape, and spray painted them gold. We finished them up with a sheer gold-dust paint and rhinestones/pearls
Arabian Pants We originally wanted the Arabian dancers to have pants. We made two pants, when we changed the costume design, due to Aladdins color choices. Instead of white and silver, we changed it to white and gold. Presently, we might use the pants for two of the girls (since that it their preference, but we would need to change out the sequins due to color. Dancers could keep the dancer belts to help stay consistent.
