LA-Con 84 medieval costumer

 


Costumes have been a big part of conventions since the beginning of science fiction/fantasy fandom, back in the 1930s. And in Southern California so close to Hollywood, many fashion-oriented fans trek to the TV and movie sets and producers hoping to find work in a field that thrills them and the audiences as well. 

This medieval costumer's garb is fairly authentic in design, if you look at medieval sculptures or illuminated manuscripts. An elegant lady of noble or even royal status meets the streets of Los Angeles. 

Black tech pen, 4 1/2" x 7 1/2", August 31,1984.
