I love how tragic Lia’s tale is and I love the She-ra-esque sequences where she possesses her brother. The idea to do this group was actually Cheryll’s. She went as Lorenza, Judy as Queen Elizabeth, me as Lia and AJ as Robespierre.
The gown was made from the J.P. Ryan pattern with some minor modifications. The undergarments (the stays and pockethoops) were also made from J.P. Ryan patterns. I made it as historical as I could within reason.
You can see a silly video of me pulling the sword from my dress on youtube, here.
