Now that's what I call LARP

Think of the French what you will but they put on some stunning LARP events. The costumes and the venue are just jaw-dropping.

I actually want to know where you can get dresses like that!

[karohemd.livejournal.com]

Knowing some hardcore LARPers like queenortart, they'll be home made. There are some tailors/costumers who specialise in period dress, though.

Ooooh pretty frocks!

I'm planning on creating something with big panniers for Pirates :)

if you go here: http://members.tripod.com/andreas.beck/pix/gencon/succubus/suc.htm
and scroll to the girl in the dress (second pic), that's home-made. I know her if you want to comission something...

Just for reference though - what sort of prices am I looking at?

[davywavy.livejournal.com]

No idea whatsoever. I'd have to ask.

Vive la France!

So when are we going????!!!!
My jaw is on the floor, I so wish I could play (or run)a 7th sea LARP like that.

Cor. I'm seriously considering my long-mooted but never-done-anything-about Elizabethan weekender for next summer. I'd have to work bloody hard to beat that, though.

[karohemd.livejournal.com]

Not just you but everyone else, too. The hardcore freeform crowd is impressive but this is just insane.

[queenortart.livejournal.com]

Swallows hard. Elizabethan weekender. Melts into a puddle at the thought of frocks for that. How many could I manage to a) Make b) Get in and out of for a weekend

Can you pass me a tissue please!

I told you it wasn't safe to tell Sue.

[riksowden.livejournal.com]

That is pretty damn good!

[caffeine-fairy.livejournal.com]

WOW. The costumes...

[luckychance.livejournal.com]

Wow. I wanna go play!

shiiiiny!
If I won the lottery I would buy a palace in Rome or somewhere just so people could larp in it! :)

[karohemd.livejournal.com]

I think you need more than win the lottery to buy a palace in Rome, unless it's a super super rollover ...
