Thank you. couldn't walk more than three paces before being photographed. I was very pleased.
And very amused when a random group of tourists started humming the Darth Vader theme as we walked past...

I bet, I spent one carnival in Venice and despite all the dazzling costumes I saw, this one would have stopped crowds then, too!

~hugs you~ Thank you so much! Though it has to be said, the costume was designed and made by who spent hours hand-embroidering the cuffs. She did a truly fantastic job.

The gears were all hand embroidered by and by all accounts, the entire process was slow and fiddly and accompanied by much swearing. ~g~ But the end result was so worth it.
