Description
The whole costume i had commissioned for me by HonestDragonChina (ebay seller) however wasn't very well made in my opinion :( The skirt didnt fit as we provided the wrong waist measurement so we had to alter that compleatly but there were some things they didnt even ask measurements for i.e the circumference of your thighs lol because of the bag being attached there, however they didnt fit at all & while trying to alter this one of them actually ripped :( & also the boot covers didnt fit every well either.

The wig was a dark pink 24" layered wig i bought from COSPLAY-WIG. I LOVE the colour. However my poor styling skills resulted in a failed wig lol. I starightend it first using the hot water method & then my dad tooke it to a hair-dressers for me to like style it lol but they didn't realise it had layers in so when i went to try it out after it had been cut it was all different lengths at the back & the bangs had hardly been touched. SO when it came to wearing it i had to hold thebangs to one side & spray with hair-spray which worked at first but then after about 10mins wore off. So i didn't really enjoy this cosplay much because of all this. Hopefully i can re-vamp it soon ^^
