I began heading to science fiction conventions soon after that in a Logan’s Run Sandman costume my mother made. As I got older, and more into the details of my costumes being technically accurate, Mom brought in her friend Marilyn, a professional seamstress, and created my “Luke Skywalker in Bespin Fatigues” from The Empire Strikes Back. Talk about specific!

In those days you could run around in costumes like a total nerd, and the friendships you made were true blue, lasting to this day. For me, wearing costumes was perfect escapism and fun! And now, you can experience it too!
