I made the Lady Gaga Halloween costume for my friend Kimberly.

I also won a prize for this one at work - wohoo!

Kim provided the black dress, and I folded all the origami shapes out of gold cardboard, I didn't cheat I made the template myself, that's right I am hell good at geometry!

Then I hand sewed all the gold diamonds on to the dress, built a sleave into the dress and then also made the matching headband. Added some glitter and sequins to the diamonds for extra sparkle.


Here is the dress!

Me at home - Geico Man costume is on the ground nearby

 

 

Ilana even borrowed the dress!
She was in a long line at a club and they let her and her
friends straight in because everyone loved the costume so much!

 

 

Early progress

 

So far, so good!
