What LotR Costumes/Clothes Have You Made?

[Sirithheruwen]

I'm not the best with a needle...

*hides mangled mess of ribbon, thread, and needles that are the point shoes I'm attempting to resew*

...so I tend to cheat and adapt an already suitable outfit.

Same here. For Halloween, I used one of my Mom's old bridesmaids dresses (a long and flowing purple gown...beautiful) and just altered it so it fit me. It wasn't very comfortable, sadly, so I didn't rush to put it back on.

I also tried to make a hobbit costume out of khaki capris and a light blue blouse, but I just looked like a teenage girl with her khaki pant rolled up so that her unusually large feet poked out.
