For Miss Aveline, who will go as Pippi Longstocking:


Ave picked out the buttons, she felt that anchors were perfect for Pippi’s apron since Pippi is a seasoned seagirl aboard her father’s ship the Hoptoad. I concur.

For Miss June, who will go as Ponyo:

Here’s a previous post where I encouraged you all, dear readers, to go see Ponyo in the theaters. Watch the trailer again, it’s sure to lighten your spirits.

These are the pieces of the costumes that I sewed, along with my sketches. Pictures of the complete costumes, on the wearers will be featured later.
Happy Halloween!!

Makes me want a pair of bloomers.
Awwwwwwwww!, cutest little Ponyo next to the real thing. I was waiting for ages, too, for the UK release….and the website I got my Blu-Ray off were good enough to send out 3 days early…so a nice surprise it was on my doorstep. I watched it yesterday. I was no less enchanted….and I’m a 38 year old bloke!!! The magic of Miyazaki-San just seems to find the kid in all of us. Great to see he is already thinking up a new movie….and no talk of retirement like we usually get after a Miyazaki movie. I think he knows now exactly how much the world needs him.
