Nobody was more determined to make Harley Quinn work than its star and producer, Margot Robbie. And all of them felt they had something to prove. It’s said that there was a woman heading up every major department in the film. A lot of people worked on this film and, unlike a lot of movies that come out of this town, these people really cared. I’m not here to dance on this movie’s grave. Sadly, the film finished with a measly 33 million bucks and is considered a full-blown box office disaster. That was down from the projections Warner Brothers had when making the movie, which were closer to the 75-85 million dollar range. OK, that was a lot! Sorry, but hope it helps.Premise: Harley Quinn tries to figure life out after the Joker dumps her and gets caught up in a diamond theft that ignites Gotham’s newest baddie, Black Mask, to try and kill her.Ībout: Harley Quinn was projected to make 45-55 million dollars this weekend. OK, that was a lot! Sorry, but hope it helps. I outline this process in a lot of my threads and process blogs on my site if some visual reference might help. Once you're happy, cut the muslin apart and use it for your pattern (be sure to add seam allowances!) Then, sketch out all the details for the different seams and cut outs on the muslin. Make that bodice in muslin and get the fit right. My recommendation would be to find a dress pattern with the same bodice shape (pay very close attention to the neck and the armholes - they will be very hard to work with if you don't know drafting). You'll be trying to reconcile non-stretch (or very limited stretch) outer materials onto a flimsy stretch base (and no, iron on interfacing is not going to provide the structure you need). So, I would recommend you find the approach you like best and then adjust to accommodate that.Īlso, and not to be a killjoy, but I would advise against trying to build the top on top of that crop-top you purchased. This may be way more info than you want, but Cynthia Rowley did an iridescent scuba dress that's similar in look to this, but it's a sure bet that's custom coated - as is the material in BoP. Also, my initial recommendation of neoprene came from the reference pics looking like the upper sides (over the arms) and neckline don't look finished - they don't seem bound or otherwise stiched in any way. If you really want the iridescent look, I'd look to stretch fabrics that are coated and laminate (simply glue - generally using something like Super77) them to a heavier fabric beneath to give you the weight and structure to hold up the shapes. It's a relatively stiff and formal fabric and you'll need to very cleanly finish your edges as it will fray if you wink at it. So, that looks to be taffeta - it will have the iridescence but I'm not sure it's a good choice for this kind of project. I would also love some help identifying the purplish fabric used at the bust, and the material of the utility belt. If anyone can tell me how to make/buy these string like connective fabric (sorry for the awkward phrasing, I'm new to this aspect lol), please let me know. Where I'm stuck is the top and the belt, especially with the gaps between the neck and the chest, and the chest and the hip. I found a pretty good match on Etsy which I purchased since there was only one left in stock, and I also found a decently cheap chain on Amazon. The pants look like an high waisted oversized baggy leather pants, which is both strapped in at the ankles and tucked into the boots. As far as I can tell, most of her outfit is made out of leather/pleather/some mix of the two. With that out of the way, I wanted to mention what I'm set on. I already have comparable shoes so no need to worry about that, and my real hair is pretty much identical. Thanks to this lovely thread by persialex I have a lot of reference images to draw from, and I have made a tiny bit of progress in identifying what I may need for this. I feel very confident building armor but I want to get better at making clothes. Or all! I wanted to start this thread both to document my progress and get advice from y'all, especially about materials and techniques. Hey all! I saw Birds of Prey last night and immediately decided I wanted to cosplay Huntress for either Anime Boston, New York Comicon, or Boston Comicon.
