Blade Runner Stiff Clear Coat

Post by MissRachel »

Hello Wet Friends,

for many years after seeing the original movie "Blade Runner" I wanted that clear, coat featured in the Zhora run down scene. It is dark and wet: the scene is dark and wet, sort of spooky.

The coat seems to be VERY stiff; look how it seems to stand straight out

Another angle to show the plastic is very stiff.

Yesterday the local fabric store was having a sale on clear plastic like you would cover your couch in. This is how I remember it was when we went to grandma's house: she was Italian.

It seems they all covered the couch in the 60's

Anyway, I bought 10 yards worth. So I am going to see about sewing one of these coats and I will let you see the results as soon as I am finished.
