Romeo and Juliet. The only parts of Juliet's outfit I made is the shift and corset. This skirt will be worn by someone else. These pictures were taken when we ran the balcony scene for a BBQ. We also changed her bodice ribbon to something a little less bright.

Zach (Not me) as Romeo. Getting ready to do the balcony seen at the Independence day BBQ. This outfit is actually mine. We were going to put this one on Lord Montegue, but it looked better on Romeo so we put the one we would have put on Lord Montegue on Romeo, and what would have gone onto Romeo onto Benvolio.

Tybalt, Paris and Lord Capulet, we didn't have hose and such yet at this point

Mirriam (the other one) trying on her skirt and corset. The shirt is from black swan design, and is not what she will be wearing. We added a few more bones to the corset after this fitting.

Elana (Mercutio) trying on her corset. We found that we had to add some more stays and we put some bais tape on top to finish. The stays are cable zip ties

Trying on the bodice for the first time. Its looking quite good. We still need to do a skirt to go with it. As well as line it and do other things with it. We also added a bit of lace to the neck line, this ended up showing WAY to much cleavage at some points.

Getting close to done, but still working on the fit.

Neil as the Frier, We ended up not using the hood.

Josh Becker as Tybalt. The pants give him a bit of a German look I think.
