Tereshkova Costuming

You ever get an idea that just won't leave you alone? Last winter the Top Gun brain rot hit hard and then spawned "formalwear inspired by Iceman's helmet". Luckily I have friends willing to enable me. The gown was off the rack though I designed and constructed the shoulder accents myself. I learned how to trace and manipulate photos in Procreate! A friend traced the screen-used helmet insignia and vectorized it, while another friend designed and made it into a necklace. The F-14 earrings were also his idea. (@optimysticals you're the best.) The cuff bracelet with the callsign I made myself (the inside secretly has "bullshit, you can be mine" in Maverick's handwriting font).

The glasses are not actually screen-accurate because I liked these Randolph aviator sunglasses much better than Ice's American Opticals or Mav's Ray-Bans.

The Top Gun logo on the clutch was done on my Cricut, because I only use it for ridiculous stuff like this. Some of it is silver glitter cardstock and the rest is red or blue vinyl.
