What the person above me said lol You'll have no issue with the dress and I bet you'll make the circlet yourself too =) I think this will really suit you with your height and all

Journal

Galadriel's Tiara (Posted 14th March 2013)

making the tiara has been quite a success but I'm still treating it as a prototype because I've never made something like this before and I'm still getting the hang of using foam. So basically this is 1 A4 sheet of funky foam (pound lands finest, of Course) painted with regular acrylicpaints and out accordingly, atm alot of the side/back is educated guesswork from small low res images, so once I've got a copy of the hobbit I'll analyse the tiara and make a newer better more accurate version but for now this one will do!
