Need help making a Wendy Darling costume

[Goofy_Girl]

Me, DBF and DD will be going to MNSSHP this Oct and we want to do a PeterPan grouping. My DD wants to be Tinkerbell and wants me to be Wendy(dbf will be peter) However I can't find a Wendy costume anywhere Every search online yields either a childs size costume or a "sexy" lingerie style version of Wendy(which to me is kinda disturbing) Anyone know anywhere I can find one or something I can modify. Or does anyone have a pattern? I tried searching for a nightgown but came up with nothing remotely close...sigh I have zero search ability...lol Please Help!

Try Mcalls M5050, but make it way longer. Just do a Google 'images' search to see the picture.

Hi! This is my first post and considering I just took a break from working on my Wendy dress to search around Dis boards... I figured it was a good place to start!

My family and I are going to MNSSHP this Oct as well and my little girl is going to be Tink, my son will be Hook, my mother in law will be Peter pan (she is small like Peter Pan) and my husband will be Mr. Smee.

I looked at the M5050 pattern but figured I would screw something up trying to make it into a dress so I'm working on this pattern (I can't post a link yet) but if you go to mccallpattern.com and put in M8107 it will show you the one I'm using.

I like that it is pretty flowy at the bottom of it. I'm going to add some length to the bottom of the sleeves and will add a little elastic to make a puffy sleeve. I'm not close to a good seamstress so if I can do it anyone can.
