"Lady of the Green Kirtle"]I always pictured her dress as being very flowing with a lot of layers made of some type of silky material

I pictured her very similar to Lady of the Green Kirtle. So, here's 2 pic I found that I really like.

When I think of a "thin dress" I think it probably has tight long sleeves and a very narrow skirt. The dress has to be poison green of course.

I think that she should have somthing on her head. Like A Garlend of flowers. My choice for a dress would be a flowy green dress that is very beautiful, but looks like somthing a villian would where! :D

I think that LOTGK should have several dresses, similar to how the White Witch was broken into 7 dress changes. Tilda Swinton's 7 dresses are called (according to The Wardrobe Door, you can check) ;) the Turkish Delight, Ice Castle, Sleigh, Smoke, Parley, Deep Magic Regalia and Battle Garb. She progressively turns less and less white; her dresses morph and it's quite interesting.

Anyway, I think LOTGK should be the same type, being especially that she is also supposed to be a Northern Witch like Jadis.

First, for when she kidnaps Rilian (This would be the same as when she's a snake and bites Ramda), she should have a light, kind of shining green (lime maybe), like poison(maybe like this?). I always thought of this dress as thin, a one-piece, kind of because of Lewis's "she was wrapped in a thin green garment". Maybe like Arwen's dream dress? Or else maybe more fitted...I'm not certain.

Second, her next scene would be when she meets Puddleglum and the children during their travels. It should be darker green, not so shiny, but still perhaps kind of flowing. Maybe like this?

And her third scene would be as the Queen of Underland. I'm thinking that there should be several full skirts so that it puffs out in a really intimidating way. Very, very dark green. I'm not sure if it's in the NarniaWeb font colors. When she converts into a snake it could be a darker-colored snake too.

There are some really cool dress ideas posted here! I have always thought that the Lady of the Green Kirtle was one of the best villainesses ever, so I'm really hoping the movie is eventually made!

I'd like to attach a few sketches I've made. They are not perfect by any means, but just some ideas... Sorry for the poor quality! (And the enormous size!)

The dress in the middle represents the dress she wears when wooing Rilian, while the other two are ideas of the underworld dress
