Pepper Potts
Iron Man
Worn at: Ohayocon 2011
Inspiration: My husband has a striking resemblance to Robert Downy Jr (yay!), so cosplaying Tony and Pepper was a no-brainer!
Design: The design of this dress is unique, with a very low and open back. The seam placement and such on mine isn't exact to the dress in the movie but it's close enough for my liking :P I also couldn't find a wavy wig in time so I got a straight one, which I love, and is Pepper's normal hairstyle anyway.
Construction: Making this dress was pretty darn easy, I just modified a pattern, and almost the only thing I had to do was alter the straps and the back (which was not easy without a dress form...)
Favorite Part: My favorite part is actually not about me at all, but walking around with a Tony Stark look-alike at the convention was TONS of fun!!
