Black Widow Cosplay


 UPDATE!  The pattern is now available in my ETSY shop Sorry, but it's just the one size until I have time to grade it larger or until I have more money to hire someone else to grade it. Check it out here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/199165877/black-widow-avengers-cosplay-sewing?


When I'm not running our yogurt store or writing I enjoy sewing Cosplay commissions.
Black Widow, Avengers

For the 2013 Fanime Convention, I created a catsuit and gloves for "Black Widow" from the avengers.

Modeling the costume is Cosmic-Empress

For the record: Cosmic-Empress usually crafts her own costumes, but since I was planning on making this costume for myself, I offered to share the pattern. She purchased the fabric, provided the shoes,props, accessories, and wig--the essential elements that transformed this from a plain black catsuit into a recognizable Black Widow. 

This was one of the easier projects I've done because she selected a heavyweight knit instead of using a woven fabric and her measurements are very proportional.

Tip:
The SHIELD patches were purchased online.

  7. Amazing outfit. I am a working photographer doing a shoot and we are having trouble finding a decent Black Widow suit. I would also like to know if you would be willing to sell the pattern and what material was used. Thank you for your time.

  10. I bought this pattern and it's a small. What size would that translate into? My model is a 6.

  11. Size 6 would be a Medium. Message me through Etsy and I can send you a PDF file that shows the adjustments needed to enlarge it to a 6/8.
