Usually when I add a costume to my wish-list or line-up, one costume becomes three, because I make, throw together, or purchase a costume for my husband and niece. When I made my Burlesque Loki costume to join a Burlesque (or Kilted) Superheros and Villains group for last DragonCon, I wanted my niece to join the group but at the same time I was running out of time. She loves Aquaman and requested an Aqualass costume. So I purchased pieces for her on Amazon and pulled in a few pieces from other costumes. It worked, but I wish I had more pictures of her cute outfit (will do that this year).

And then I let her borrow my trident from my Ursula costume, and found a 3D printed Aquaman pin on Etsy. I’ll post more pictures of her costume after this DragonCon.
