Silk Spectre II
Comic Version
Watchmen
Last Updated: 05-16-2009
Better late than never! I wanted to wear a Silk Spectre II costume to the Watchmen release, but logistical issues and my lack of planning killed that. The leotard was commercially bought. While the leotard is not completely accurate to the comic book, my figure (unlike Laurie's) has to contend with a little thing called "gravity". So I opted for more coverage in leiu of 100% accuracy.
I made the dress with a conventional pattern, only needing to lengthen the sleeves to full length and adding 2" to the hem. The choker and belt are scrap pieces of bias tape. The skull on the choker came off a keychain.
