EyeCon Fantasy Twilight Tour

The EyeCon Twilight Convention in Orlando was so much fun! I met lots of amazing Twilight fans and really enjoyed sharing my collection with everyone! Kenny (the shows awesome promoter!) coined the phrase "The Twilight Museum", and you can see in the pictures below how it was set up. I shared the room with Kimbra, so we were an attraction all unto ourselves! It was great!!! I hope to meet some enthusiastic fans in Australia and until then...enjoy the pictures!

Bella's birthday party replicas, as seen in the upcoming NEW MOON parody by THE HILLYWOOD SHOW. Bella's custom green taffeta dress with black rose flocking (Not the NECA replica), Alice's deep purple dress, Rosalie's dramatic black gown and Esme's frilly pink/lavender party frock. On the table is a sign announcing the upcoming NEW MOON parody, along with a few other pieces like Rosalie's VINCE CAMUTO pumps (which are usually displayed with her NANETTE LEPORE blazer she wears in the cafeteria scene and in promo shots, but didn't come to Orlando), Bella's green "kangaroo" hoodie from the treetop scene and Rose's slouch hat from the aforementioned cafeteria scene.

More NEW MOON costumes! The outfit Bella wears to the movie theatre with Jacob, her Volterra "running through the fountain" outfit and her "Cliff Diving" Outfit. All paired with ink-wash J Brand jeans.

The first two costumes on the left are what I like to call the "9/13" costumes. On the far left is Alice's costume from Bella's birthday at school. Next to it is Bella's costume from her birthday at school. It features her orange JANSPORT backpack, J Brand jeans and Billabong jacket. The costume to the right from that are, in order: Angela's "Dress Shop" prom dress, Alice's "Meet The Cullen's" outfit, Bella's "Cafeteria-Your mood swings are giving me whiplash" outfit, Bella's brown rubbish coat, peasant top and Lucky brand jeans, Bella's Max & Cleo blue prom dress and refitted and re-sequined vintage sweater, and last but not least, Cam Gigandet's screen-worn "JAMES" costume.

See above for a few descriptions on these costumes! Below James' costume is Victoria's "KISS ME I'M IRISH" shirt.
The amazingly beautiful and wonderful Kimbra Hickey's table was set up amongst "The Twilight Costume Collection". What an HONOR! She is one of my favorite people!
Bella and Edward mannequins! These are my "life-size" dolls! Bella is wearing a complete "ballet studio" costume, consisting of SIMPLE SHOES, AG ANGEL cords, LUCKY BRAND tunic, and BB DAKOTA (original edition) Cargo jacket. She also sports authentic duplicates of her custom leather-knotted single bead bracelet, Black St. Jude bracelet and silver turquoise cuff.
Edward is wearing his trademark pea coat that was made from grey wool bought at MOOD FABRICS in Los Angeles. It's lined in a beautiful shade of blue and is 100% screen accurate...right down to the beautiful pewter buttons. His grey shirt and pea coat have been signed by Preston Johnson, Robert Pattinson's stand-in from the first TWILIGHT film.
Edward's "GStar" coat, worn when he saves Bella from Tyler's van. This coat has been signed by Justin Chon. Although Justin never wore this coat, he was in the "Van Crash" scene. The grey t-shirt worn with the jacket is signed by Preston Johnson.
A few pieces that you'll know! Emmett's vintage styled baseball hat, signed by Kellan Lutz, and Chief Charlie Swan's police coat, signed by Billy Burke.
I usually love the more ornate pieces, but Dr. Carlisle Cullen's lab coat is seriously one of my favorites. Here is his custom-embroidered lab coat, signed by Peter Facinelli. I added the "Forks Hospital" ID badge just for fun! My good friend Lisa made the badge and it's AMAZING! Thank you Lisa...you are a jewel in the Twilght universe!

Edward, Charlie, Carlisle.

  1. I wish I could have been there this weekend, just to see these costumes. Ok, I just wanted to try a snatch and run job with Charlie's jacket. Darn work!

  2. Wow! I wish I could have been there to see your collection! You should come to the UK, we're having several conventions.
    Where did you get Bella's leather knotted bead bracelet?
