So, perfect your ’do with liberal amounts of Sleekeazy’s Hair Potion and take your seats on the front row to remember the best moments of Hogwarts high fashion from the Harry Potter films. Hermione’s Yule Ball dress When designing uniforms for these additional wizarding schools, Temime said she sought inspiration from "a melting pot of different influences," ranging from history to folklore. But the unique wizarding take on style has led to some of the most beautiful, daring and interesting costumes to appear on the big screen. Confusion about what to wear when dressing as Muggles can lead to some very strange combinations, as seen at the Quidditch World Cup where confused outfits included a kilt paired with a poncho and a tweed suit matched with ‘thigh-length galoshes’.

It took me a little more effort than expected to put together this Luna Lovegood costume from scratch, but I think the end result was worth it – read on for more details. Cut out the half you have drawn, fold it down the center (where the bridge of the nose goes) and copy onto the other side. This is the basic template for your Spectrespec frame. Finding a pair of Spectra Specs in Australia at short notice was pretty much impossible, so I made a pair from scrapbook paper glued onto card and then double-sided taped onto a regular pair of sunnies. They turned out pretty cute I think. DIY Luna Lovegood Spectre Specs I can imagine this lion hat would also look amazing as part of a Wizard of Oz Cowardly Lion costume.Luna created her lion hat and wore it to show her support for the Gryffindor Quidditch team whenever they played against the Slytherin. When she tapped the hat with her wand, it let out an extremely realistic roar. While in Goblet of Fire Hermione wore ‘robes made of a floaty, periwinkle-blue material’, big-screen Miss Granger wore a stunning pink tiered ombre gown for her date with Viktor Krum. For the Beauxbatons uniform, which comprises a blue silk dress with a matching shawl and felt hat, Temime was drawn to a symbol from her own heritage and a color that hadn't been used before in the films.

I hope you enjoyed this post. We had a lot of fun both putting the Luna Lovegood costume together and taking the cosplay photos.

Goblet of Fire," the fourth installment in the series, introduces two additional wizarding schools to the "Harry Potter" canon: Beauxbatons Academy, located in southern France near the Pyrenees Mountains, and Durmstrang Institute, an establishment situated in an unspecified part of northern Europe. Emma is really into the details when it comes to recreating cosplay costumes. She was especially particular about the bag. I documented the process of making the crochet lion hat here on my IG stories. Don’t ask for a pattern because I just made it up as I went along. I estimate it took me about 18-20 hours to make in total. Do you love it? I think it’s one of the best things I’ve ever made. So many people stopped us at Comic-Con just to get a picture of the hat. Our Quibbler magazine was just a regular magazine with this printable design glued onto the cover. I did a little bit of resizing in Photoshop to make it fit. It was the perfect prop to finish of this Luna Lovegood cosplay.

The skirt was made from vintage fabric and a vintage sewing pattern. I chose the most similar fabric in my stash to the reference image. You can buy the exact Luna Lovegood fabric design here from Spoonflower.

I couldn’t find any blue woven fabric like in the original image, so I decided it would be easier to crochet one instead. I used a few different yarns held together and then wove coloured wool roving fibres through to give it a hand loomed texture. I was silly not to take before photos as the difference between the ‘before and after’ was quite impressive. Account icon An icon in the shape of a person's head and shoulders.
