Costumer
USA
Biography:
Elizabeth is a Professional Costumer, Seamstress and Doll Prototyper. She has won awards for her costumes at local, national, and international Costume and Sci-Fi conventions. Her costume work has appeared on public and network television and in local and national papers. She enjoys recreating costumes from artwork and photographs. She also has judged many costume and cosplay contests, as well as running them. As a Doll Prototyper, some of her favorite jobs were creating the clothing of the Lewis and Clark expedition in 1/6th scale and being priviledged to duplicate the clothing of Alexander McQueen on Blythe dolls for a Target ad campaign. Elizabeth grew up with unlimited Science Fiction books, and is extremely glad to have discovered and loved Anime long before it was a popular phenomenon. She has been a doll collector as long as she can remember, and over the years has progressed from Chatty Cathy and Barbie, to vintage and collectible dolls, and now to Asian Ball Joint Dolls. Hazel (a 60cm Obitsu) has been living with her for six years now. Although she still loves all her dolls, the ABJDs (especially Hazel) have totally taken over!
