| This outfit was the first I wanted to finish from the character. I made two Ashford uniforms, since the first one was pretty lame and rushed and second version of the uniform turned out great. It took me a while to make the uniform, since I didn't know how to build it up. I used yellow ribbon, instead of gold (which means I'm going to make the Ashford uniform again, also the fact that it's falling apart). I had a good half a year wearing this and I enjoyed wearing it with my sister as Suzaku. I kept on deciding to use my actual hair or a wig. It turned out I used a wig but I had a few problems with it. The wig I used kept on flicking out at the sides, (even though it's supposed to do that at the end of the hair). My sister and I hair sprayed it down but the wig started getting messy XD I think I'm going to buy a new wig for him, bleh orz [ EDIT.26.01.10 ] Bought material for my V3 Ashford uniform xD The material is thick but not heavy for the uniform, so I'm pleased about that. It was £2 per yarde, which was alright. I ended up getting 2 yardes because the roll of material was my height....so hopefully it is enough. Next time, I have to go ribbon shopping. I'm going to get 7 metres of gold ribbon. I'm going to re-use my Ashford logos from my old uniform. I just remembered that one of my friends got it for me <33 I alreadly have the buttons. I think I have to find my old belt as well. Trousers I already got. Hopefully I can get the base of the uniform done by tonight or the end of the week if possible ^__^ [ EDIT.05.02.10 ] Finished my v3 uniform 8DDD Finally! Now I don't have to re-do this cosplay another time XD I thought I wouldn't get this done in time because of the shoot but I did, so yey! *claps* | |

Ribbon and more progress~ (Posted 2nd February 2010) I sewed the sleeves to the main bit, now I have to sew the buttons on. I bought ribbon today. It's thin, so I'm scared to used the machine for it .__. Not sure what to do. I have to get it done by Sunday though otl This week in college has been crazy, I'm trying my best to fit Lelouch in for the week. I might spend Saturday sewing Lelouch if I can't get him done by Friday *shot* I got extra sewing needles, just in case I break the last three other ones....just in case >.> For the wig....I might use my Sebastian wig for him, since for some reason, Yas can pull him off with the wig and Sebastian was once Lelouch before Q__Q Ribbon - £1.75 (7 metres) |

In the making ;D (Posted 26th January 2010) I did my sleeves. I had a bit of a problem with it. Since I got 2 yardes of it, I'm killing myself to save a lot of the material >__<;; I want to get the base done, so I can get started on Ion D; |

V3 (Posted 31st December 2009) Going to make another verison for the Ashford uniform because mine is almost dead, might as re-make it for the next All-Hail shoot, since I can't find any time making a new outfit for him, so re-making the Ashford uniform will do me justice :D |
