Iron Man Dress

My Inspiration for an Iron Man Dress

KelseyMichele did a fantastic job translating over-the-top costumes into quite lovely evening gowns!

My love of Iron Man and need for a new cosplay for New York Comiccon practically required I give the very bodyconscious design a try. Even if it required more spandex than I have ever worked with before.

After sewing a fitted long sleeve dress out of the metallic red spandex it was time to work on the golden accents.

Without a walkingfoot attachment to my sewing machine it was near impossible to sew on the sticky metallic side of the fabric

Mcguyver an Arc Reactor out of Home Depot supplies

And add some sexy shoes found in Goodwill and painted to match
