She Kills Monsters: Orcus’ Vest

This vest was created for the actor who played Orcus, the former Overlord of the Underworld. This vest was created out of a vintage minx fur coat, estimated to be from the 1930s.

The most difficult part of creating this vest was that the fur was so old it was falling apart. Because of the integrity of the material, I added a lining and reinforced it with quilting stitches.
