Construction Details:

The brooches, and every moon on my costume (there\'s 7 total) were made out of sculpey, molded and then made out of epoxy resin and coated with a high gloss coat.. so that took a bit of time in itself.

The first time I wore this costume, it wasn\'t made exactly to my liking, because I had to rush a few things, but I ended up revamping a lot in order for it to look nice!
I\'ve recently updated this costume! I\'ve shortened the skirt by a few inches, and made it smaller around also, redoing the pleats and the zipper. I\'ve made a new yellow belt, new odango covers and I\'ve fixed the sleeve things :D

The odango covers are also epoxy resin with the high gloss coat on top. I made the bodysuit, and an armor \"tank top\" to go on top. I altered the boots a little, adding the white edges, cutting them, and taking them in a little. The shoulder armor is actually iron on vinyl over pink sheer fabric, I was REALLY excited to use that stuff xD. I also used it to \"interface\" the butt bow, which is also clear :D. Pretty much everything on this costume snaps into place~ I love snaps lol. I added some batting in the chest bow for it to have that poofy anime shape.

Personal Thoughts:

I want to enter this in a contest some time >_

Styling Notes

I'm still not exactly happy with the wig.. it's very heavy, so it's super super hard for me to get the pigtails up as high as I would like. I still don't want to stub the wig tho because it's so pretty :<. That's my next \"alteration\" that I hope to get a bit more right for the next time I wear it.
I got the base wig from cyperous and I also had them make me custom SUPER LONG extensions. They aren\'t that great at not tangling though @_@ they get tangled pretty darn badly. I did add a few pieces in the back to try to make the part I made look better, but it\'s really not that great because I don\'t have a heat sealer. Ah well.
