In the comment section, I promised to share photos of my costume from David’s holiday work party, which we attended last night. I had mentioned a need to cut a very long wig and that I planned to use some of the leftover hair on the woman in my new Star Gate portal.
We forgot to take more pictures at the actual event, but here are some shots from before we left the house. The party invitation strongly requested costumes from anything owned by Disney, which now also includes the entire Marvel Multiverse plus Star Wars. David and I went as Cruella de Vil and one of her henchmen. The venue made a special vegetarian entrée for me, and it was amazing! Such a nice surprise, as I usually can’t eat much at these events. Between the costumes, the food and getting to hang out with some of David’s work friends, we had a great time.
Anyway, here are the promised pix–the caked on makeup was intentional and kinda fun!
I’ll post the Star Gate portal once I finish.

Great cosmetic makeup. Like the long-haired rendering. Also, very unique look with your glasses LOL! I assume David’s henchman costume coordinated your “power couple” declaration. Looks much fun.

Thank you! David looked great as the henchman. He had on a brown corduroy shirt, khaki pants and a green shirt, a black newsboy cap, black boots and he carried a small stuffed Dalmatian puppy. I thought the eyeglasses would simulate her dark, arched eyebrows!

Thank you! It was extra fun because I normally need to be a bit toned down for his work parties, but this time I could be as weird as I liked.

And, yes, I realize it’s Disney, which I don’t generally support. Of all the characters, this was a fun one to do.
