Description Me in white? Shocking!! But it was for a wonderfully Labyrinth-y cause.
This is/was my costume for Otakon 2009. My boyfriend and I were Sarah and Jareth from the glitter-tastic 80's movie Labyrinth, for those of you who don't know. It was magical. We got lots and lots of photos taken of us and met many fangirls.

And I had to pleat 15 feet of fabric for the fucking skirt >:C

Props to you two for dressing up as Jareth and Sarah! I love how your boyfriend has his hair. It's unexpected being short, but it really works. I'm glad he didn't wear a wig. I like your necklaces, very nice accessories. Good job on the dress. Where did you get the corset from? I have a few corsets, but am always looking for new sources. Lovely understated hair accessories. I'm glad you have several different images. The last one if my favorite. It just looks so sweet.

This is wonderfully done--I really like your interpretation of the characters as well as the designs. And out of curiosity, did he really cut his hair like that? 'Cause I've gotta admit, it's pretty awesome.

The two long bits are extensions But the rest of his hair really is like that.

Both of the costumes are beautiful and I can definitely tell how much time and effort you put into them.

Haha, thanks.
Actually, he's the one who introduced ME to Labyrinth, he's been obsessed with it since he was a kid. So he was more than happy to strut his stuff in velvet tights xD

So all I want to know is this: how much coaxing did it take him to dress up, or is he just a big a fan as you are?

He's a bigger fan than me, he's the one who introduced me in the first place

Thank you! I am fortunate enough to be dating a huuuuge Labyrinth fan, so we were very determined to make it work.
And yes, that dress was a challenge! I'm still not completely satisfied.
