I've made a couple from Simplicity Patterns.
This was a sort of "Fair Maiden" look I was going for the first time I went to a Renn Fest. My then-boyfriend (now fiance!) went as a knight, so it was perfect. Last year I made him a pirate/mercenary costume with black pants, a white shirt, and a blue vest. A lot of people thought he looked like Sam Adams. ^^
Sorry for the size of this one.
sweatdrop It's another Simplicity pattern, but this was for Katsucon (Anime Convention). I wanted to try for a "samurai's lady" look, but a lot of people thought I was a geisha. (Hopefully they knew a geisha is truly an ARTIST, not something else!) Still, I'm pretty proud of this. I'd made my fiance a kimono with black pants and a blue top with cherry blossoms on it, and we've worn them to the National Cherry Blossom Festival these past two years.
