| I love Lenalee ^-^ Shes my favourite character next to Lavi and her 2nd Uniform is my favourite from the series. I wore this to the October 2009 Expo and also took part in the Masquerade as part of a D.Gray-Man Group ^^ The Jacket is made from black pleather and was made by following a Jacket Pattern with wide-sleeves (I made the length slightly longer and changed the collar) The white detailing on the jacket is made from a white material which looks like pleather but is a lot thinner. It was actually glued down with fabric glue as it was too hard to sew (The sewing machine ripped it and hand-sewing made it too holey) The black shorts I already owned and I bought the boots from ebay ^^ The belt and side-skirt are made from the same fabrics as the jacket. The belt I made just by getting the general shape and cutting it to fit. I used an old belt buckle from a belt I no longer used and then glued down the white. The silver rings are just some metal ones I found and are kept down by little 'belt loops' which i also made from the pleather. I did also make her knee guards and leg straps but they didn't stay on my legs so didn't wear them in the end T_T Though I will be cosplaying her again ^^ Cost Notes~ Black Boots~ £13 (including P+P) from ebay Black Shorts~ £14 from New Look Butterick Jacket Pattern~ £6.50 from FabricLand A3 Craft Foam sheets in white~ Sewing-machine needles (for leather/pleather etc.)~ £1.33 from FabricLand Black Wig (with 1m ponytail extentions x2)~ £30 plus £8 P+P from ebay Exorcist's Badge~ £6.21 (including P+P) from ebay Black Pleather (for jacket and side-skirt)~ 2 mt's~ £12ish~ Rolls & Rems White Pleather (For detailing)~ 1 mt~ £4.80~ Rolls & Rems Silver Button (for jacket)~ 65p~ Rolls & Rells | |

Boots ^-^ 9/7/09 (Posted 9th July 2009) So I found some really nice boots on ebay the other day and managed to 'win' them and for a really good price too! They arrived today in the post and I LOVE THEM! They fit perfectly and look really good i think ^^ Not 100% accurate as Lenalee's boots have a high-heel but i knew for a fact If i bought them with heels they would KILL my feet at expo which was why i opted for these XD They still have a heel tho even if it is only small but ah well XD I'm going to be making the silver/gray discs that she had on either side of her boots (when she activates level 2 innocence) Im also going to add the black rings she has on the front of them and i want to try get some sort of neon green/blue coloured tape to put on them (I think in the picture its her innocence?) and then lastly do her knee pad things~ Shall update soon XD |
