Chicon 7 - The Costuming

Thursday, September 6, 2012
Once we realized that a significant number of the UCF would be in attendance at Chicon 7, one of the things we wanted to do was to have some fun with our clothes. It's not often that we get a chance to dress in nerd-appropriate attire in an atmosphere where the people in attendance actually understand what we're going for, so we totally wanted to take advantage of the situation.

Day 1 - Declaring Our Affiliation


These T-shirts were made for us by UCFer NeuronDoc, who wanted us to declare our affiliation early in the Con. For those who need glasses (or are old), the caption reads "Trollopalooza 2012 at Chicon 7" with the UCF Logo below. NeuronDoc's kind of the bomb.

Day 2 - A Corsetry of Trollops


The archaeologist, the Dirigible Driver, The Socialite, the Suffragette, and the Maverick. How predictable that I should be the Maverick. Or oxymoronic. One of the two.

Day 3 -  Firefly




Inara, Zoë and Saffron. This was my favorite costume of mine, as Zoë suits me both professionally and personally.

Day 4 - Bits and Pieces




This costume was basically just an excuse to wear this awesome blouse (which I've been informed is called a "corset blouse"). I didn't get a photo with my fellow trollops because my ankles were starting to hurt by the third day of wearing my awesome Fluevog Hudsons all day, so I wimped out and changed early. 

Tomorrow: Panels!
