Such an awesome project! I would definitely use the skating pads, maybe even sew them into the costume. I stumbled upon your video which works perfect as inspiration for me, as i am also doing chani and paul for halloween with my boyfriend! Do you have any suggestions on how to do it as simple as possible? I'm thinking combat boots, biker shorts (it's hot where i live) but i'm not quite sure what i can do for the top part. I wish i had my old skating pads lol
not sure where you’re located but a larger size thrift store (think salvation army, value village) tend to have a good variety of pads, or you might be lucky too at a smaller thrift! I think with what you describe and being a warm place, maybe greyish black tight t-shirt to go with the shorts and stick some shoulder pads in! If it’s a fitted shirt they shouldn’t move around, and you could find a pair at a dollar store, or sewing shop! For the shirt, you could check out the athletic clothing section for some sort of heather dark grey tee that has interesting seams on it! Or if you use a regular tee you could sew in some easy seaming that’s reminiscent of a still suit! hope that helps!

@@bymayaginzburg I hadn't thought about shirts with interesting seams! I'll definitely look for something similar, thank you so much for the tips :)
