Costuming Links
Costuming
and props are huge portions of the LARP experiance for most of the Domain of Boston
members. We believe that part of the game is the right atmosphere and the right
costuming. However, many members, particularly those new to LARP, sometimes need
a helping hand in where to look for costuming and prop resources. The following
list is a compilation of helpful links, resources, and shopping locales.
New
links are always welcome so please feel free to submit links to the web mistress
at minxlette@gmail.com Please try to
include a brief description and any notes you may have if you've ordered from
them before.
General
Props and Jewelry:
www.designtoscano.com - A great site for some interesting costume jewelry and occasional props like canes.
www.raveneve.com - Gorgeous goth jewelry. Nuff said
Renaissance Faire and historical Garb:
www.sofisstitches.com - Affordable (comparitively) and well made ren-faire costuming that works well for Changeling
www.contemporaryrenaissance.net - Run by two cammies, more nicely made ren garb.
www.renstore.com - Sometimes dubious quality in garments, but they do have some nice stuff and an excellent source for accessories and some general lower-end garb
www.museumreplicas.com - Again great accessories but the clothing quality is entirely hit or miss. Some great stuff of good quality and some stuff that you may end up sending back.
Miscellaneous Cool Stuff:
www.blackphoenixalchemylab.com - Scrumptuous hand-blended oil perfumes that do NOT contain additives or perfumer's alcohol - many members in the domain now use BPAL oils to make sure their PC's smell yummy.
www.amphigory.com - Nice wigs and cool makeup
