Noldorin Rivendell Elf OC at the 2018 EstelCon Tolkien convention - Upgraded my ‘green velvet erudite’ outfit with a new tunic and sash, following the Rivendell ‘male’ fashion (to me it’s unisex), which I’ve always seen as both comfortable and elegant 💚
.
The tunic is a super lucky find - a silk-velvet robe from Zara which immediately caught my eye because of the gorgeous moss green colour with red-purple lining (that’s one of my fave colour combinations ever 💚💜). It looks really close to a Rivendell robe, I just needed to add front buttons, and have the sleeves altered to get the bell shape they have going on in the Hobbit Rivendell costumes 😁
.
For the sash I got a gorgeous dupioni silk in nearly the same red-purple of the robe’s lining 💜💜. The embroidery is based in Elrond’s Council sash. I could only embroider half of the sash for the convention, and it’s been ages since I’ve embroidered xD, but I quite enjoyed it 😊. I’ve also realized that Arwen’s Farewell dress sash has nearly the exact same design and colour I’ve chosen for this OC, so I might have added that dress to the list too xD
.
The dark green velvet robe I’ve already had since one of my very first Elven cosplays back in my teen years (the ‘green velvet erudite’ pics I posted a while back as an upgrade of srots), so glad the colour palette all fits together 😁! Rest of the outfit was a ridged fitted inner jumper in black that I also use for my Spock in Vulcan robes, some purple jeggings, and thigh black boots.
