The "Red" Queen

This weekend we traveled roughly 4 hours to Evansville, Indiana for a roller derby bout
Our travel team was playing in their first WFTDA bout (the big time)


Look a theme.. yes yes. 
We got dressed up 


P was the madd hatter and I was the red queen


Inspiration


My version
I took an existing corset added gold sequins trim, made a red skirt with elastic and added the gold hearts than took 24 yards of tulle and made a tutu using ribbon, made the septor from a dowel rod and wire and painted it gold


part of the half time show using mop buckets


yup thats P in his yellow plaid suit




Us


P getting his golden number at the after party


The lovely smashmouth
