Edit: Alright, I've looked at Kitteh's post and decided against...

Yuna from FFX

Yachiru from Bleach

Or Soi Fong from Bleach

So vote please =[


Before you decide right off the bat, just let me say.
I'm 14 and I'm overweight. Which means no matter what I wear, I'll probably be embarassing myself. I'll only wear a long dress, which made Temari (part II) and Yuna from FFX my prime choices. I wanted to be Shion Uzuki from Xenosaga since it has pants and everything, but $230 is too much for me to handle >_< So take my weight problem into consideration before you make your decision, please. And if you have another idea for me, feel free to post it x.x; I'll post a few pictures of myself, but don't make fun of me for them >_>; I had to take them for school/dance recital... things.
Height:5'7"
Hair: Brown at the top, red-ish at the bottom. Goes to mid-back when not in a ponytail.
Eyes: Brown
Skin: Fair with freckles
Body type: overweight >_>;
Skill level: n00b, plx.
Budget: $130

Yuna is a good choice! I like Yuna :3

How about characters from bleach? Black is very slimming and the kimonos wouldn't be too hard to make :3

Rukia was my first ever cosplay and I made it when I was about 12/13 x);

I will second the vote for a bleach character. Kimono are very forgiving. I'm making a maternity one as we speak...

However, I do not think you should worry about being overweight for your costume. When everything comes down to it, you have to portray a character that YOU love and who cares what others think, because you love the character/costume. Most outfits can generally be somewhat redesigned to be proportional on a larger figure with some creativity so that they look good, but still are indicative of the character. all in all, cosplay is a hobby that is supposed to be fun, and as such, you should be comfortable and confident in your costume. And by comfortable, I mean feel good about wearing it, not necessarily physically comfortable, thought that is good as well!
