About this Costume
Construction Details:
This is a perfect example of something being released, and finishing it up in a week for a con the next weekend. While I planned to do it a week before the con, I didn't really begin two days before the con.

Bought the green shirt fabric a couple days after deciding to do it. For the shirt I modified a pattern, and then for the vest and cape I drafted the patterns myself. it was a bit of trial and error with the cape, I did a rough idea of what I wanted to do on scrap fabric I had around, and when I got something I liked I moved on to doing it on the blue fabric.

The vest was just a lot of pinning and repinning on myself when it came to shaping it right. I really need to get a dress form.

The bow is comprised of three pieces. I couldn't find where the hell my interfacing was when I was making it (actually I still can't find it), but luckily the fabric was stiff enough that I could get away with not having any.

I made my top hat from left over blue fabric, scrap black fabric, vinyl, and lots and lots of hot glue.

Pants were the only thing I didn't make which came from my closet.
Personal Thoughts:
I'm a vampire! I'm a vampire! And I lost my fangs~

Whoops. My bat went missing in the hotel room for my Otakon shoot. I haven't found it. TT^TT
