1) Tell us a little bit about yourself, your hobbies and background.
My name is Lymari. I am originally from Puerto Rico, but I moved to Florida back in 1999. I'm married and a mother of two beautiful daughters. I like going to all the conventions that I can.
2) How long have you been costuming? What kinds of experiences have you had?
I just started costuming at DragonCon 2006, but I've always dressed up for Halloween since I was a little girl. My experience was really good. My first costume was Batgirl, then Princess Leia slave, and Supergirl.
3) What's your earliest memory of seeing Return of the Jedi?
Wow! That was like 15 years ago. I really love to see it when Luke Skywalker comes to Jabba's palace and when Princess Leia kills Jabba with her own chain.
4) When did you get your first "metal bikini" and what drove you to it?
I got my metal bikini a week before DragonCon 2006 (Thanks to Jamin!). My husband is a big Star Wars fan and he had a "dream" about me wearing a metal bikini at the conventions.
5) What is your favorite memory of appearing as Slave Leia?
When I took a picture with other Princess Leias with Jabba and other Star Wars characters.
6) If you danced for Jabba the Hutt, what song would you dance to and why?
I don't know, maybe something slow by Bon Jovi.
7) Any final words?
Thanks to Jamin for making my metal bikini in time for DragonCon 2006! I hope we'll see you again at Celebration IV.
Thanks Lymari! |
