Hey Nubians,

Cosplaying is so much fun! If you haven't tried it I must say, there's something very liberating about dressing up and channeling your inner superhero or heroine. You want to know what's even MORE COOL? People that make their own costumes! It's easy to go into a store and buy a generic costume, but unique costumes are always so much more intriguing. I personally love to pay attention to detail.

However, making your own cosplay costume can be difficult... especially if you have no experience sewing. This is why McCalls Pattern Booth is such a great stop for you to make if you're thinking of cosplaying in the future or currently cosplay and want to step up your game.


Here are some photos from the booth. They encourage you to pass by and chat about sewing and cosplay. 





McCalls also does patterns for Vogue and other brands which is good to know if you ever need a dress or a particular look for a special occasion.


Here's a photo I got from the teams Facebook below. They look like a fun group of people. 


Till next time my dear readers!

Hey Nubians,


I've really been into this editorial lately of Amanda Murphy for French Numéro Magazine August 2014 shot by Greg Kadel. It kind of makes me think of fantasy art brought to life and the styling by Bill Mullen is crazy good.

The story around this editorial is the play between animals and humanity. A lot of the details from the outfits and the headpieces are inspired by exotic animals. I love that the scaffolding in some of the outfits add a bit more depth and dimension to the photographs. The colors and prints also make everything pop out more, especially photos where the outfit and backdrop contrast. The wings add a nice dark element as do the sculptured shoulder pads, studded choker necklaces and dramatic headpieces with medusa-ish vibes.

It looks like a mystical, enchanting, sci-fi dream come to life in this months Numéro Magazine editorial. The straight-forward style in which the photos were shot make them all the more stunning. Check it out below.
