Fantasy Clothing

[d+dwidow]

Does anyone know of a good fantasy clothing site or shop? I take part in live action role play and am looking for a female elven costume to wear, but cannot find anywhere that stocks this type of clothing. Preferably around London and Kent area please. Thanks

Can't find any local to you, but I had a look round and found these: http://www.skianmhor.co.uk/ and http://www.lrpstore.co.uk/contents.asp. The second one is quite annoying - I really needed some elf ears for the missus, but didn't know the place existed (and it's just a few miles away). It doesn't appear to be a very cheap hobby, though. It might be worth doing a search on "elf" or "eleven" costume, because when I was looking for a way to make elf ears, I came across a few sites that gave you budget ideas on how to get a cossie together (then you could just order a set of ears). Sorry, but the bookmarks are long gone from my system.

Do a google search for "cross dressing"+london.

thank you LeMarchand. I can get hold of a pair of elven ears for you - they're really cheap here. Do you need the tips or the whole thing!!? your right, it is an expensive hobby. i've given up trying to find anything over the internet and have bought a pattern and bribed my mum into making it for me! they're all just too expensive to buy online.

Thanks for the offer, d+dwidow - we managed to find a site that showed you how to make a pair out of flesh coloured plasters (really!) that did for the "teachers in fancy dress" day at school it was needed for (the missus has a few "elf" type dresses any way, so it was just the ears that were needed). Good luck with the LARP!
