Buy Khaleesi-Worthy Jewelry from <i>Game of Thrones</i>' Costume Designer Herself

The Creators Project: Game of Thrones' stellar costume design never fails to amaze: take the unforgettable moment in Season 6 where the various elites of King's Landing got dressed up for the big trials, for example. Now, that level of expertise can turn your own daily drudgery into a Khaleesi-worthy fit, thanks to a new line of jewelry designed by the HBO series' own costume designer, Michele Clapton. MEY Designs is a collaboration between Clapton and jewelry designers Yunus Ascott and Eliza Higginbottom, gliding onto the scene with an epic dragon necklace á la Daenerys Targaryen.

The costume design for Game of Thrones is AMAZING. The show has a costume team of 100 people, who generally make 700 pieces of clothes for each season, and they start everything from the beginning, the most basic steps of costume making. Their costume designer for the first 5 seasons, Michele Clapton, traveled around the world and went to numerous museums to design clothes that suit character's local culture, weather, occasion, and economic status. The team even spends several months to focus on a minor detail that would just flash by in the show. They are so AMAZING. Their budget for every episode is 6 million. I don't know how much they spend on costume. They are so AMAZING. I would definitely buy one of the jewelry on this website, supposing that they're made of same high quality as in the show, or even better, if each of them did't cost that much. I'm so sad I can't afford it. But I click to open the link of DAENERYS DROGON NECK SCULPTURE that costs $2730, and it shows that it's "made to order", and would generally take 14 weeks because of its popularity. Rich people are crazy. Rich fans are crazier. I wish I could be one of them. The costume design for Game of Thrones is AMAZING.
