✧This pattern does not include:
Any physical supplies (eg fabrics, physical paper patterns, foam), this listing is completely digital.

Patterns for 3d printing files - we love collaborating with creators in the community who specialise in props and 3d printing, links to their supporting work are provided below.
 
✧This template is designed for use with approximately 3mm eva foam. Below are some suggestions for materials required:
3mm eva foam - I used foam from local Aussie supplier Lumins Workshop which you can find here. This is not sponsored but hey Lumins, call me?
General foam work supplies - make sure you are equipped with contact adhesive, your preferred cutting device, cutting mats, markers and saftey equipment is essential! If you aren't equipped Lumins also has you covered for that too!
White fabric for the ruffles - I used whatever scrap I had on hand but a light weight woven fabric like a satin/sateen, or even a basic cotton or poplin would be totally fine.
Brown fabric for the straps - if you dont want to make them from foam.
Embellishment materials - either some 1-2mm evafoam, pleather, cricut sticker vinyl, foam half dowels or foam clay are all options for adding the gold vines. Whatever you vibe with most!
Stud rivets - I used studs for the 'dots' and to attach the straps.
Black separating zipper - or your preferred closure type for the centre back
Triangular foam dowels for the buckle - or if you grabbed the Dangerous Ladies Kit for her outfit, the buckles are included.
Your preferred finishing method - I spandex covered my breastplate, you may prefer the traditional route of flexbond sealing and painting.
 
✧This template works fabulously with these accessories/props from my beloved collaborators The Dangerous Ladies! They do also offer a 3D printed breastplate so if you're reading all this and are still thinking to yourself 'please, I don't want to have to make it in foam!' they can look after you:

Supplies may vary depending on your preferred construction method and favoured materials. You do not need to use the same materials as me!
