COSPLAY/COSTUME
RINGS OF POWER COSPLAY
A cosplay inspired by my love of J.R.R. Tolkien's writing and worldbuilding, the Rings of Power Cosplay utilizes many of my skills such as drafting, draping, hand sewing and fabric dyeing to make a look that took 300 hours to complete in its totality.
This cosplay was not a direct cosplay of a specific character but instead an interpretation of the outfits worn by the Elves in Rings of Power.
LADY LOKI FROM MARVEL COMICS COSPLAY
A cosplay for FanEXPO Vancouver 2026. I chose to do Lady Loki from Marvel Comics because Loki is one of my favourite characters from the comics and movies and Lady Loki in particular has very fun and complex outfits. I took inspiration from a few of her looks from different comic runs and supplemented the designs with iconography and materials from the Mammen art style of Norse/Viking art that was common around 960-1025 C.E.
Every part of the outfit except for the boots and the gloves that are attached to the vambraces was made from scratch. In this piece was hundreds of hours of sewing/pattern making, embroidery, scalemaille, leather tooling and painting and weaving a skjoldehamn inspired belt. This was also my first time working with leather and with chainmail/scalemaille, which proved to be a fun challenge
ALTERNATE UNIVERSE STAR TREK CONCEPT COSTUME
For my Costume Design class, our final assignment was to take an existing TV show, Movie, or Play and reimagine it in a different genre, setting, mood or aesthetic. I decided to work with the original 1966 Star Trek. Star Trek’s iconic imagery and aesthetic is inspired and reflective of the 1960’s Space Craze in the race to the moon. I decided to instead reimagine the world of Star Trek if it were instead inspired by a previous space craze era of the late 19th century when science-fiction was becoming a true genre of literature with authors like W.G Wells wrote about space and aliens and time travel. I imagined a more steampunk and Victorian/Edwardian focused world where glass and intricate detailing were hyper-focused on instead of the minimalist nature of Roddenberry’s Star Trek series.
We were challenged to make our entire costume with a budget of 80$ CAD. All of my supplies were either already owned or bough from secondhand or dollar stores. I ended up using 76$ of my 80$ budget, including the supplies needed to bye fabric and make the space helmet. The concept of the costume was an outfit that the “Landing Party” could wear with the colour scheme aligning with the Command Division, with this particular outfit designed for Captain James T. Kirk
