Finding clothing for an Elf - Elven clothing

check out 'elf' and 'elven' in the marketplace under clothes, and also under accessories, I know there are a couple of people who make wonderful elvish clothing. Can't offhand think of names but there's atleast two.

 

Have you looked on the forums for customisable stuff? Im ordering some stuff from there that is elvin in appeance. Look under Seamstress in the marketplace forums, there are a couple of people who make elf looking gear on the first page.

 

I used to have that problem too! Then I bit the bullet and chalenged my sewing abilities. XD I'm not great, but the stuff I make is alright for me boys. ^_^ It took me a few times to get things to work though, but now I'm planning on opening a shop. *nods*

I know there are a few people on DoA that make elfy stuff or people you could commission. *nods*

Now I have problem fiding fabrics or designing new stuff for them that fits them perfectly. x.x;;

 

So, I just ordered an Elfdoll Sooah Polaris, and I was wondering if there were any sites out there that have Medieval/Elven/Fantasy dresses/gowns (like the ones in LoTR) for 60cm dolls? (or in this case, 58cm Elfdolls). I'm on a budget, so I can't afford anything TOO expensive. I can't sew, so that's not an option for me. ^^;;
It's just so HARD finding a place that seems promising. I've spent all day looking. -sigh-

Thanks to anyone who offers help. :3

EDIT: As a side note, if there is already a thread like this out there that I'm currently not aware of, please feel free to remove/delete this post. ^^;;

 

there are a few people that make the long velvet type medieval gowns... Robyn in WA, PamSD, I think desert rose couture does too... here is a link but it seems the site isn't updated ... http://members.cox.net/marksusanr/marksusanr/desert_rose_couture1.htm

 

Thanks. (Although the 'dresses' link doesn't work)

 

DoA member Azurielle makes gorgeous elven and medieval style clothes, though I'm not sure if her commissions are "open" at the moment. I have two lovely gowns from her, one of which is actually an "Arwen" gown. They are very reasonably priced, too.

 

Azurielle seems to still be making gowns and elf-themed clothes. Sylphide sometimes makes gowns. PamSD also has gowns and medieval dresses, off and on. And there are others who do Lord of the Rings cosplay... but they don't all do commissions or have slots or clothes available...

Otherwise, it's hard to find elf/fantasy clothes. It's MUCH worse looking for clothes for boys. I'd LOVE to hear more suggestions, too! I'm always looking for elf-y clothes, since I have a ton of elves of all sizes! Fortunately for me they don't insist on dressing elf-like all the time...

 

Hmm, it seems all the customizers make elven GIRL clothes, my personal fave is Sylphide. For boys, Wicked Stitchery may be of some help, but I don't know if he's open for commission right now. He's made some wonderful elven boy ensembles in the past.

All my dolls are elves, and all girls, but I have had elven boys in the past. One wore cute loli-boy clothes, but the serious one wore a linen tunic and trousers that I sewed myself. Nothing fancy, but it worked for awhile!

Good luck!
