The Triple Red Sun Intergalactic Commerce Complex
The Stores:
The entries for the folio this time around will focus on accessories or separate pieces of costumes.
The setting for the folio is an intergalactic shopping complex. There are a number of shops catering to the various needs of a very diversified clientele. I am hoping for more submissions as single accessory pieces which can be put in a display room with the designs for the fashion folio. Often it is the accessories which actually put the costume over the top especially with the workmanship Judge.

The ever popular "Army/Navy" store has a large selection of new and used uniforms, combat gear, weapons, and space suits. There is a space suit competition being sponsored by and judged by Katherine Jepson.
