Iron Man Cocktail Dress

Inspired by a sketch by Kelsey Michelle, Spwinkles sewed this cute dress:

It's been fun seeing their in-progress shots and I am so happy to finally post my (99.9%) completed outfit. Been working on it on and off for months. I really had no pattern for this so I cut up an old form-fitting dress into the right pieces as a guide and sort of made up the sleeves? [...]

It was the first time making a costume out of stretch PVC! It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, though. The red is 4-way stretch and the gold is 2-way stretch. 4-way stretch is my friend or else I wouldn't have been able to fit into that skirt, aha...

Cocktail dress? More like street walker! HA I kid I kid.
It's actually pretty awesome :D Kinda short for my own taste, but I like the details.

And we might also be the record holders for largest "Blue Screen of Death", although not proud.

Any other cities as gung ho about Guinness World Record day?

I would LOVE one of those stockings! I settled for a much funkier yet smaller version when I got one for my niece yesterday (http://www.brightandbold.com/youdeitchst.html), which is probably good, because I don't think I could afford the St. Nick goodies for the one in Toronto! Thanks for sharing!
