Noldorin Rivendell Elf OC at the 2018 EstelCon Tolkien convention - Upgraded my âgreen velvet eruditeâ outfit with a new tunic and sash, following the Rivendell âmaleâ fashion (to me itâs unisex), which Iâve always seen as both comfortable and elegant đ
.
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 (thatâs one of my fave colour combinations ever đđ). 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 đ
.
For the sash I got a gorgeous dupioni silk in nearly the same red-purple of the robeâs lining đđ. The embroidery is based in Elrondâs Council sash. I could only embroider half of the sash for the convention, and itâs been ages since Iâve embroidered xD, but I quite enjoyed it đ. Iâve also realized that Arwenâs Farewell dress sash has nearly the exact same design and colour Iâve chosen for this OC, so I might have added that dress to the list too xD
.
The dark green velvet robe Iâve already had since one of my very first Elven cosplays back in my teen years (the âgreen velvet eruditeâ pics I posted a while back as an upgrade of srots), so glad the colour palette all fits together đ! 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.
