Costume Making for StarKid Show

For thoes of you who have never heard of the StarKid group and some of their awesome shows such as A Very Potter Musical or Starship this may seem random to you. There are two characters called Qurriell and Voldemort. Who are for parody's sake 2 guys in one robe standing back to back. These guys:


No, I couldn't get a better picture. Well. Samantha and I decided to go for broke and attempt to make our own costume on a budget of 10.00 and whatever left over Halloween costumes we still had in the closet. First we took two old cloaks and fixed them together here:



Then as neither of us thought the prospect of sewing ourselves in would be a good idea - we went with velcro...see...hard at work!




Then we sprayed both robes down ( Though Voldy's side more liberally) with Sparkle Spray...as ya do.



End Result?



Myself as Quirrell...






"When I rule the world there will be...SNAKES!" .... "and flowers..."




"Some times I leave dirty laundry around."




. We may work on sleeves and some edging but this is our base.


Well folks, for better or worse...there you have it
