Costume Details

About the build:

This cosplay was a pandemic impulse purchase turned beloved cosplay once I made a few modifications to it. I removed the front and back panels and replaced them with pleather applique on powermesh, and sewed a bra into the dress for additional support. I also stitched the thigh high socks to a pair of power mesh shorts to avoid droopy socks. This is my first purchased costume and I really enjoyed having a solid base of a costume already made for me.

Fun fact: I can’t actually walk in those heels, they are photoshoot only. I have a pair of flats for convention wear.
