Description
Looking through an old album I discovered that I made this costume in 1987 rather than later. I was asked for my autograph many times from my fellow nerds who thought I was the real thing. I don't think I look that much like her. But I'd studied and practiced her mannerisms, speech pattern and laugh.
This is another costume where I had to draft the pattern myself because there was no pattern available. It had a corset inset attached and the V in front was wired from top to bottom to stay in place. I'm rather proud of that bit of engineering.

You look like her more than you may realize; you definitely have the legs for that look, for one thing--add in the mannerisms, etc, and, yeah, I can see them asking for your autograph.
