Ahh thank you <3~! We actually sewed all our LED lights by hand and used an arduino "lilypad" controller to program them and make them chase ~ I have more in-depth construction notes up on my ACP page~! [link]
As in what pattern she used to make the skirt? She actually made the pattern herself from scratch! She's on DA, she might be able to help you out more if you have specific questions about it <3
I know we used the same interfacing stuff in both of our costumes, so if you're looking for something that has a looooot of rigidity to hold a gravity defying shape, I'd highly recommend it! We got it at Joann, this is what it looks like on the bolt: [link]
I believe I have a variant of that that is a sew-on interfacing, maybe one notch down that I was using out of paranoia of getting a droopy collar on a jacket. Wanted to make sure that collar stood straight up. Just have to figure out if this stuff is what I need to interface both the "shell" and the "liner" part on the underside/inside which is closest to my skin..
