Upcyled Caterpillar Tailcoat - Repurposed Blazer and Work Gloves - Artwear Clothing, Scrap Art Couture Endure Upcycled Designs by Karen Yaremkewich Handmade Locally ~ One-of-a-Kind ~ Eco-friendly PLEASE NOTE: THIS GARMENT IS CUSTOM ORDER ONLY. PLEASE ALLOW 2 WEEKS TO CREATE. This listing is a custom order and the photos shown are of costumes I have previously made and don't reflect exactly what you will receive. I create using reclaimed materials for an eco-friendly garment. I make special effort to create something one of a kind using the materials available at that time. The Caterpillar (also known as the Hookah-Smoking Caterpillar) is a fictional character appearing in Lewis Carroll's book, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. i am particularly inspired by Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonderland" film. Alan Rickman voices the Caterpillar, who in this adaptation is named "Absolem".[2] Rickman was filmed while recording his voice in a studio, but his face was not composited onto the character's face as originally planned.[3] He appears five times in the movie. The first time is outside Wonderland, when a young man is about to propose to Alice and she notices a blue caterpillar on his shoulder. The second time is when the white rabbit, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, dormouse and the dodo try to decide whether Alice is really the one from the Oraculum. They take her to Absolem, who concludes that she is "not hardly Alice." He appears after Alice arrives at the White Queen's Castle, on this particular meeting, she becomes rather annoyed with him blowing his smoke in her face. He appears again before the war and reminds Alice of her previous trip to Wonderland, and proclaims that she is Alice at last. At the end of the movie, the caterpillar, in his transformed form as a butterfly, appears on Alice's shoulder as she sets off for China. All work done in my smoke free and pet free studio.
