Description
Salty Pearl:
This outfit is my baby and it took me 172 hours to make in total, every detail is hand beaded and hand sewn, Gem was molded and cast by me, Wig styled by me, Makeup by me and the model is of course me. And yes--the shoes are made of salt and gems too.
Since the character is known on the internet as Salty Bird mom i used salt packets (that my friends and i stole from taco bell)as well as white feathers down the center seams and pearls on all edges.
I also designed her bottom part of the shirt to match Rose Quartz's sword hilt. Down the thigh there is stars for each one of the crystal gems. There are rose designs on the leggings and back of the shirt since Pearl's love is Rose Quartz.
This outfit- Salty Pearl- is the first in a series:
Trashy Amethyst:
Made from dozens of fast food wrappers (clean ones) and bottle caps. Since she is trash mom i thought it would work this one took less time but ws still time consuming since each food wrapper was intricately folded, glued, cut and then sewn together like a big puzzle. On the back of the trashy amethyst outfit is a picture of the map you seen in the show. Since amethyst is the only other one besides steven from earth i felt like it was important to her to have that since that is a big part of who she is. c:
Spicy Garnet:
This was next in the series. I made Garnets out of taco bell hot sauce packets and beads. I felt like Garnet was the most mysterious and vague of all the characters. Not as much is known about her unlike the rest and i hope we get more info in season 5. Garnet is an amalgam of 2 people rather than just one. I always imagined ruby to be the one trying to use crappy pick up lines on sapphire, as well as ruby being the eternal flame baby that she is, so a lot of this design was based around ruby rather than sapphire. There is a little heart on the back of the outfit where it has blue and red beads that kinda symbolize the characters and their love i think. If we get another costume change, i may think about doing another addition to this series.
Our Space Dorito:
Her design was admittedly the most fun aside from pearl. I loved cutting out the diamonds, and i loved a lot of the beading i did on this one, albeit very subtle. On the waist line i used keyboard keys that say "Crystal Clods" In repetition. And on the back of the outfit i did an homage to yellow diamond, which is something i am reallllly proud of. The wig for this is also one of my favorite parts, it was actually really easy to make so if anyone has any questions for both pearl and Peridot's wig they can pm me.
All the photos are taken in an 1800's mansion, since I did such a couture styled outfits i thought that we needed a really elegant building to make it work
The photos are taken by my beloved Gwynn!
All of the outfits were hand made by me from head to tow, hand casted gems, wigs, shoes etc. and in total ended up being over 450 hours of work. Several months of sadness to say the least. Im so proud of the costumes though. I hope you guys love them as much as i do.
