Most women who watch The Mandalorian and cosplay would chose to make a Cara Dune costume, and while that also might be me (I’ll come back to that later), I love love love Peli Motto even more. This spicy space mechanic, played by Amy Sedaris if you squint, repairs ships at the spaceport of Mos […]

Costuming Adèle Blanc-Sec
In “the before times” (aka pre-pandemic), my Costume College partner-in-crime, Tina and I were planning some sort of steampunk or Edwardian/Victorian explorer costumes to wear together.
