Sanctuary, Helen Magnus complete Victorian style outfit from Season 4

original movie costume

Stunning custom designed Victorian style dress worn by Amanda Tapping in her role as Helen Magnus. Worn in the season 4 ep. Tempus. With the exception of the boots this is a complete costume right down to the earrings. Being Victorian in style there are several layers. Blouse, vest, jacket, skirt, underskirt and a hoop skirt that attaches to the back to create that Victorian bustle look. This is perhaps my favorite of Helen's period costumes! There is dirt and wear along the hemline that indicates it saw use during production. You will notice there aren't any buttons on the neck in the screen shot....well as it turns out I put the shirt on backwards for the photo. Who would have thought it was to be buttoned up the back.
