Sevens weekend is when I like to show the amateurs what costumery is all about.
Not strictly Star-Warsian (alright, not remotely Star-Warsian unless I decide to wear my Buba Fett) but a dozen or so of us are going dressed up to JJ Murphy's, Cuba Street around 4pm. It's a chance for those of us who are virtual friends to finally meet in the flesh, so if any of you good folks are interested you're more than welcome.
If you're not sure which group of patrons to introduce yourself to, look for Jeb Stuart and Steampunk Wonder Woman.

Re: This Saturday in Wellington
Just been at the Wellington Sevens. Fantastic!
Saw the two Stormtroopers with a girl who looked like Mara Jade beside them. Was that someone from here ?
Also saw Slave Leia !

Re: This Saturday in Wellington
Didn't see many star wars costume's myself, just a $2 shop vader and stormtrooper, and a reasonably good but still slightly costumey fett who's face looked familiar, may have been someone from here
We had a great time though, we weren't at the game, just drinking with like minded folks. I was wearing my JEB Stuart (confederate cavalry general) costume again, the only one i've worn more than once because it's so sexy
Everytime I wear it the norms seem to think I'm a pirate. Last night I got called a pirate, captain hook, captain cook, zorro and colonel custer, which i had to admit was a fairly good guess.

Re: This Saturday in Wellington
we waited for two hours for the bus home due to a slight misinterpretation of the re-routed buses, so we got to watch all 20000 (or however many) people march past.

Re: This Saturday in Wellington
The two stormtroopers were interviewed on the big screen. I assumed they were part of the famous Imperial Garrison as they were in professional costumes ie movie accurate!
I was certain they would be on here. Slave Leia must have been freezing! Was windy and lashing down.
May wear my Indiana Jones costume next year.
