BeachYukicon event




I wanted to make a beach  Thranduil cosplay for the BeachYukicon- event that was held on  July 5th 2014.
My original design was to make an old timey stripy swimsuit, but then I found a silver tunic in my wardrobe that I had hardly ever used because it didn’t really suit my tastes and decided to use it instead. 
After all, silver is Thranduils color.

The original shirt...
The idea was to use the same kind of lines and cuts Thranduil had on his original outfit. Since I didn’t want to start cutting the tunic too much, as it did unravel quite easily, I just took it in where I wanted to have the line and secured it with sewing. Simple and easy.

Making the modifications~
Done!
I finished it just a day before the event and then - - I overslept on the event day and woke up late in the evening! Just my luck. Honestly.

Oh well, these things happen. Atleast I’ve now got a cool silver tunic to use~
