Dressing-Up Buffy For The Holidays

[Karen]

During the holidays, what do you wear when going on the town with your 'centuries' old boyfriend?

You mug (um...borrow) a "1996 Happy Holidays Barbie's" clothes! (It was a perfect fit for Prophecy Girl Buffy.)

Introducing...


HAPPY HOLIDAYS BUFFY

Maybe it's just the angle of the picture, but she looks really alarmed...

That is so cute. Now I wish I had one.

Yes, where exactly is Angel's hand by the way... hee! Kind of reminding me of that scene with Buffy and Spike on the balcony at the Bronze!!

Anyway, she looks adorable and I had thought of doing the same type of thing - making holiday costumes and/or hats for all my figures but just never got around to doing it this year. I thought the Gentlemen would look absolutely fantastic with little Santa hats on their heads posed around a small Christmas tree.

LOL ;D

Anyway, very cool idea to make a medieval Buffy, Karen.

Hey, maybe that's what their mysterious meeting was like.

Oh I love this!

That outfit really does fit really well doesn't it?

[Girl Power]

That looks gorgeous! However, her eyes do seem frightened.

That would look really good on a human Darla. Too bad they don't make one. The vamp Darla's are too ugly to dress up in pretty clothes!

[Dave the Vampire Slayer]

Hehe, she kind of looks like some innocent Angelus is about to turn.

[shep]

its a perfect fit. what a great idea.

Dave, she DOES look like Angelus is attacking her or making lewd suggestions to her.

I especially love the muff on her hands. That is so cool. It really looks like something that Darla would have.

And here I thought the poor girl just had a hyper-active thyroid condition (One symptom: Protruding eyes from the sockets).

"Bad, bad Angelus!"

Unfortuately, no camera angle would have softened her stare (startled look), but the dress and hat does soften the over-all look, and I'm quite happy with it.

I had thought of a similar thing: Little santa hats and scarves, but for the 6 inch figures.

Ho Ho Sodding Ho...





The suit was an ornament that I found that was just that jacket on a tiny hanger. I took the waist in a smidge in the back. The hat and beard were from a little puffy Santa on a box that I got from the 99 Cent Only store. (I now have a bald, beardless, hatless "Santa" on a box.) I sewed the ends of the beard to the hatband and made a hidden chinstrap to keep it on, so any figure who want to be Santa can wear it. And since I don't have a tree this year to make a good backdrop for a photo, I took it to where I knew I'd find plenty of decorations (and I had to use the $20 off annual pass coupon before it expired).

Now to take photos of Angel wearing the Holiday Angel Barbie gown. He looks so angry and put-upon when he's made to wear his sparkly gold gown, transluscent wings and golden halo. I just had to let the seams in the sleeves out a tad for him to fit, then covered up where the dress doesn't meet in the back. Next year when I have a tree, he's going on top.
