“Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore”
(Facebook, twitter & Instagram: @DutchDumbledore)

With over 1 year of preparation, planning, combining and making
‘Albus’ premiered at ‘The Harry Potter Bookstore’ on January 22nd 2017.

This is Draude’s Third ‘big’ Cosplay (this actually is his Fifth, but ‘Big’ as in well known character.)

This costume has been make with the loving help of
2 lovely friends (Nathalie Honing and Sharon Schiedon) who also put a lot of detailed embroidery on the costume.

The hair/beard is carefully selected out of may choices.
and is made up out of 4 beard pieces to seamlessly combine to one beard and ‘wig’.
completing the illusion of being real hair of the character.

Also the tassel hat, glasses and wand completes the illusion as you can see below.
