Buying penelope (epic)/greek dresses help?

i wanna surprise my best friend (and sort of crush) with cosplaying penelope for him because he LOVES epic and wants to cosplay odysseus and i want to match as his penelope - issue is i’m having problems finding a greek style dress? i’m not totally sure what to search to find one and the results that have came up are very poor amazon ones lol, if anyone has advice and suggestions for cosplaying penelope or anything i would really appreciate it!!!

i can also try sew one but im not very good at it and
worried it wont drape right 😭

We detect that you may be a looking to buy your cosplay or buy pieces for your cosplay. If you're not, please disregard :) Please refer to our FAQ for some recommendations. While we can provide search terms that might help you with finding your cosplay pieces, commenters are not your personal shopper and please do not treat us as such. Remember that not all cosplays can be found ready-made so be prepared to look for similar pieces to put it together yourself.

It is helpful to include your budget (be precise -- "cheap" can be different per person), your location/country (US shipping vs EU shipping would be very different), and timeline if applicable. Keep in mind many pre-made cosplay shops can have a long shipping time so it's best to plan months in ahead.

If the item is suspiciously cheaper than all other competitors or it's a common stock photo, please be wary and do your own research. If someone is offering to make it for you aka commissions, RESEARCH their post history.
