costumes
made: October 2005
worn at: The premiere of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
about: I was really late to get on the Harry Potter fan boat. For many years I shunned it because of its popularity and swore I would never read it .... until the Summer of 2005. Five years into the craze my brother (a big fan, with a memory for Potter trivia that rivals Wikipedia) finally got me to start reading the books. Since then I have become absolutely hooked! My newfound passion and dedication had me wanting to make a costume for the GoF release. I chose the Beauxbaton student outfit because I think they're really cool! And I can never turn down blue. Alas, I am not a snobby French girl worthly of being a Beauxbaton- if I were really a part of the HP universe I would certainly be a Ravenclaw ... though I always wish I was a Slytherin. Thats just because I like Snape, like *really* like Snape. Go ahead and say I'm weird, that's okay. :)
