Diary of a Costumer

I finished the skirt embellishment today, which means all I have left are hooks and eyes at the waist, hooks and eyes on the swiss waist, the ribbon tie on the parasol, and the hat. I think I can hopefully finish that all tomorrow evening? Though that said, if I get home from rehearsal after work tomorrow and it's actually not raining, I might take that chance and finish the Halloween decorations. It's been crazy rainy lately (literally it's been raining every single day since at least last Thurs if not before), and I still have a bunch of decorations to put up!

Oh, and I did take the opportunity to go see The Dressmaker after work today, since today was the last day it would be in any local theatres. It was really good, though not quite what I expected. I laughed a lot, but I also cried. Overall it was a lovely movie, with wonderful costumes (of course), and a really good story. To be honest, the only thing that threw me off was that Kate Winslet's character is supposed to be around the same age as Liam Hemsworth's character, and another girl named Gertrude, but both of these other actors looked significantly (as in, over 10 years) younger than her. As hot as Liam Hemsworth is, I don't know why they didn't cast other actors that are around Kate Winslet's age. That said, I do recommend seeing it if it is still playing in your local theatres!
