Typical topics include special event costumes ("cons" and parades), science fiction costumes, mythological and other non-factual historic-type costumes, serious Halloween and Mardi Gras costumes, theatrical costumes, using and finding patterns, materials, books, and finding sources for supplies. We discuss mask making techniques, using wigs and other head gear, makeup issues, vacuum forming (mold making and building), using plastics and other materials safely, dyeing fabrics, incorporating mixed media into costumes, the use of unusual materials such as aluminum cans, chain links or wire cloth, etc. and the use of various fabrics, such as lycra, sheers, netting and metallics, etc., to achieve special effects. Notifications of publications, galleries, shows and other venues that offer displays of fantasy costume, and learning opportunities available through classes and workshops, are also of interest to this list.

Vintage Clothing list
Purpose: To discuss existing vintage clothing and vintage costume jewelry, of all eras, but especially existing Victorian vintage through to the Sixties. "Existing" is the key word here, and conversations concentrate on how to find such clothing and jewelry, where to buy it, how to judge its quality, how much to pay for it, how to wear it, etc. Some restoration topics, such as how to use parts of damaged goods in other garments or jewelry settings are suitable topics too. Announcements for estate sales, advertisements for sale or wanted, and pointers to shops are all welcome on the new list.
Conversations concentrating on creating historic clothing from patterns or through draping, etc., should go to the Historic Costume mailing list rather than this list.
