Costume Information

Description
Working out how much this wig is going to cost I realised I wanted to make the most of it so I'll be doing her huge white dress from the OVA.

Using duchess satin just because I love the stuff and wanted to work with it for such a great dress. (Not to mention it doubles as a wedding dress!) XD

Dress:
Lined and possibly boned though I'll probably just go with a corset. Shaped netting underneath to hold the bottom of the dress in place.

Cape: Fosshape chest plate with a lined satin cape. For the top I'll be using strips of fosshape to hold the spikes up.

It's wicked to work with! It's just a thick fabric until you heat it so it's amazingly light and easy to cut. I didn't have the time to start playing around with the friendly plastic so I went for that again instead. X3

Journal

My turn (Posted 4 Weeks Ago)

So after finally finishing Zagato today I've been able to start on my dress. This really is a push for me, I've never started anything so late (Celestine was 5 days to go) but I can honestly say I'm really happy with the dress. The bottom falls really well and granted I've not tried the top on yet but it seems to be the right size. (If not then I'll be tightlacing!) All thats left is the cape which I can do tomorrow!

Starting! (Posted 1 Month Ago)

Finally managed to get the material for this and Zagato today. I managed to find a good up close image of the artbook version of her so I'm going for that as my main ref image. I'm hoping to get the crown and possibly the belt part of the cape done today for both of them.
