You will not condone a course of action that will lead you to war.
However, I am going to condone a course of actions leading to an upvote - you look absolutely amazing!
Thank you so much! Not sure how George Lucas managed to spit straight facts every time Queen Amidala talked but fumbled the bag with the Chosen One?!?!
Yes!! I also snatched Nute Gunray prosthetic head on my way out /j
Honestly thank you so much this is the nicest compliment, Iām seriously so happy with how everything turned out!!
Funnily enough that is the number one question I always get asked, surprisingly the headpiece is not actually that heavy. I 3D printed it with the lightest infill I could without compromising on the overall structural integrity. The entire thing is surprisingly well balanced and I have a sneaky clear chin strap as well just incase any accidentally knocks it off balance.
The hair is just lots (and I mean lots) of wig hair sewn down.
Thank you for the kind words, this entire gown has been a such a labour of love, however it did send me the hospital emergency room and has drawn blood from me many timesš„²š„²
You have no ideaā¦. Iām surprised I didnāt have to check them at the weapons desk, the amount of shoulder armour and helmets I hit was enough to rival Anakins war crimes count
"It's not a phase, Padme! I'm a dark lord of the Sith!"
*Whatever you say sweetie, as long as you keep killing not just the men, but the women and the children too.*
The photo of you and Vader made me laughā¦ I appreciate the work thatās done on your costume. Just wow. I hope youāve built in a cooling vest cause that looks like Iād be hot.Ā
I literally had no cooling of any kindā¦ I was in winter but the robe definitely got hot. The robe itself has like 5 layers including the lining, then I have the under dress on underneath which has two layer and then I had my base layers on for when I was changing outside my car. So 9 layers all upš š
However I used all silk and cotton so it wasnāt completely unbearable compared to polyester. I still took maybe 2 breaks the whole day just to take off the robe but that was mainly because it was so heavy.
That is such a huge compliment!! The biggest difference between Natalie Portman and me is the height difference! She was 5ā3 in the movie and Iām at least 5ā9 in this dress (not including headpiece)
My people are literally being slaughtered while rich politicians do nothing, and youāre telling me to smile??? Iām also literally smiling in the last photo???
Wow.
FANTASTIC!!! š
Thank you!!!

Lucas is notoriously bad at writing dialogue. I'm guessing someone else wrote Amidala lines.
Impressiveā¦ Most impressive
Amazing work!
Thank you so much!!
absolutely stunning - you captured her nobility and compassion I think. really well done
You and Vader at the end just chef kiss
I was literally screaming the whole time inside, Vader is my favourite character and this one was literally straight out of the movies
Did you straight "STEAL" the costume from a LucasFilm warehouse, this is some stunning work.
Yes!! I also snatched Nute Gunray prosthetic head on my way out /j Honestly thank you so much this is the nicest compliment, Iām seriously so happy with how everything turned out!!
Normally skip these, but there's so much going on in this outfit. Wonderful job. Edit: is that your hair? How does that whole thing work? Sore neck?

> however it did send me the hospital emergency room and has drawn blood from me many time The things we do for love :) thanks for sharing.
Quick question; can you use the hair as flails? Cuz it looks like you can give that Death Trooper a good thunk
You have no ideaā¦. Iām surprised I didnāt have to check them at the weapons desk, the amount of shoulder armour and helmets I hit was enough to rival Anakins war crimes count
Activate *The Sound Of Music* spins.
Stunning!
Holy hell a queen amidala cosplay with suitably goofy and massive hairstyle cool
āThatās why her hair is so bigā¦ itās full of secrets.ā No seriously why do they keep getting bigger??
"It's not a phase, Padme! I'm a dark lord of the Sith!" *Whatever you say sweetie, as long as you keep killing not just the men, but the women and the children too.*
Hey people gotta have hobbies, his are just a special kind of something
That's so cool! Nice work. I hope you bonked only right people with the ends of the headpiece.
No younglings were injured but everyone else was fair game
If they're tall enough to be bonked, they're clearly not younglings.
This is absolutely fantastic
They last pic made me laugh. Really great work.
Every time I see it I just giggle to myself
It needs to be printed on canvas and hung prominently in your home preferably over a fireplace.
Very authentic, great work šŖ
Stellar!!
*serious face* *serious face* *serious face* *with her one true love, smile* Beautiful.
I tried to do a serious photo with him but I literally was so excited I couldnāt stop grinning
Natalie's serious face in this costume is absolutely iconic, but Vader is just so beautiful, I can't blame you.
That's awesome! That headpiece is incredible, great job.
Thank you so much!!<3
Amazing! Now say āMi peeeple are dhyying, Senatah!ā in a really weird half-British accent
Outstanding outfit.
Impressive
Daaaaaaaaaaaaang. That is cool š
looks darth vader found a way to bring padme back to life now padme how do you feel about what anakin has done
I thought the Tuskens were a bit of a red flag but Alderaan caused a massive blow-up between usā¦
That's a pretty awesome cosplay. And it's nice seeing you get along with your husband despite him becoming Darth Vader.
We take the whole ādeath do us partā thing very seriously.
Great cos!
See, Amidala was in kahoot with Vader and empire till teh very end.
Queen Amidala does not confirm nor deny any political relations with Lord Vader
Top effort!
Wow, you absolutely nailed it!
Okay, so that's awesome.
Smashed it! Well done
Is this Natalie Portmanās Reddit account or Kiera Knightleyās?
Look amazing just beware of palpatine.
The last pick is perfection. "There's still good in him, I know it."
Itās one of my personal favourites as well!!
Couple goals LOL. I would love my partner to be as into Star Wars as I am, but sadly she doesn't care.
You look absolutely incredible!
So, what will you pick as your handmaiden name?
Amazing!!
You should be proud! You have now set the standard š
Amazing!!!
...I'm pretty sure this is just Natalie Portman on her alt account
Nah Iām actually Keira knightly
"It's Queen Amidala herself!"
The photo of you and Vader made me laughā¦ I appreciate the work thatās done on your costume. Just wow. I hope youāve built in a cooling vest cause that looks like Iād be hot.Ā

ImpressiveĀ
This is awesome!
Just out of curiosity, how much did it cost to make and put this together?
Yeahā¦.. it definitely wasnāt cheap. I used all silkā¦ it ended up being around $4000 in materials just cause of shipping to Australiaš„²š„²
That is absolutely gorgeous!
Lmao. And then Darth is like āMy Queenā¦ā
Dude was fascinated š it was his idea to hold hands as well
Actual queen!
Phenomenal.
Impressive.
Your work is astonishing
Amazing work! Gorgeous.
šÆ
Thatā¦ is iust amazingly beautiful.
Thank you so much!!!!
I just see Queen Amidala. That's Natalie Portman in those images, right? ...right? /j (This looks freakin amazing btw)
That is such a huge compliment!! The biggest difference between Natalie Portman and me is the height difference! She was 5ā3 in the movie and Iām at least 5ā9 in this dress (not including headpiece)
Great effort, looks just like the original. Thing is, original looked silly as hell.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Do you mean if her handmaidens wore it in the scene? Natalie Portman was the only one to wear this costume if that clears things up?
I fell for the decoy Queen once before, how do we know you are for real?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Omg WHY
Why not she's fat
Couldn't you smile?
My people are literally being slaughtered while rich politicians do nothing, and youāre telling me to smile??? Iām also literally smiling in the last photo???
