My DragonCon Cosplays

 My DragonCon Cosplay History

After attending my first DragonCon in 2022, I set a goal to make DragonCon a convention I attend every year going forward as long as I am able. The cosplay there is out of this world, the vibes are amazing, and it is just so unique. On this page, you will find a brief summary of my cosplay history from DragonCon each year!

DragonCon 2025

Image
 DragonCon 2025 Hallway photo by  moments_converged DragonCon quickly became my favorite convention for cosplay after I attended for the first time in 2022. DragonCon is like a huge family, and everyone I have met there has been so awesome! This was our 4th year in a row going to DragonCon. My mom accompanied me again this year, and we had such a blast.  Click here for my Dragon Con 2025 Vlog over on my YouTube channel! Because of our work schedules, we usually can't make it to DragonCon until Friday night. So as soon as we were able to escape work on Friday, we loaded up the car and drove from Tennessee to Atlanta, Georgia. My mom drove us so that I could assemble some swag bags on the drive down. We arrived at our hotel around 10:00pm and got settled in. We haven't ever stayed in a host hotel, but we like to try and stay at hotels nearby so that we can walk over to the con space each day. And as usual, I had to add a small finishing touch to one of my cosplays for the ...

Making Padmé's Picnic Dress

Image
  Photo by madcapmags Padmé's picnic dress was definitely a dream cosplay for me. And surprisingly, I made this cosplay a reality pretty early on in my cosplay career! I took my time on the details of this dress, and I think it really paid off in the end. And when I say I took my time, I mean I worked on this cosplay for over a year and spent just under 300 logged working hours on this dress (and I know there is some working time I did not account for). I am so happy with how everything on this dress turned out. If you are hoping to make this dress one day, here is a walkthrough of what I did with some tips and resources I found along the way that helped me with the creation of my dress. Resources First off, I would not have been quite as successful with this dress without all of the amazing cosplayers who have already shared tutorials and their build processes online. I have found the Padmé costuming community to be so helpful and supportive. They even have a Facebook group that w...

Making Ahsoka Tano's Lekku Headpiece

Image
  Photo by benderlens I started an Ahsoka cosplay back in March of 2021. I knew I wanted to make the headpiece, but I had no idea how to even attempt something like that. I had made a few cosplays before Ahsoka, but this seemed very complicated to me. Fortunately, lots of Ahsoka cosplayers out there in the galaxy have shared tons of resources, patterns, and tutorials that I was able to reference. One resource in particular that I found super helpful was the  Team Tano Facebook group , which is all about cosplaying Ahsoka! I took a dive into that group and looked up other cosplayers on Instagram and YouTube to find as many ideas as I could. Making The Base Headpiece I ended up settling on purchasing a base pattern from  CommanderPoptartShop  over on Etsy which was super helpful and had great instructions to guide me through the process. I think the specific version I purchased is no longer available due to some updates from the creator, but that shop has several diffe...
