I decided to stick this shoot in the cosplay section because I don’t think putting a handful of these photos in my modeling portfolio will do everyone’s hard work justice! This was an idea I had after scouting some amazing vintage DC bed sheets on eBay.

Deciding it would be fun to turn them into dresses with some friends for SDCC 2010, I commissioned my ensemble from Blasphemina’s Closet/local designer Samantha Rei. I gave her the sheets and free rein to do whatever she wanted within a sort of 40’s housewife/pinup feel. I love the results.

Four of us participated in the group, and we shot photos at various locations in our hotel at San Diego Comic Con. A big thank you goes to Hydred Makabali and Nesreen Madain for their fantastic work on my hair and makeup. There is a reason I use them every year at the show!
