22nd October 2012: making the dress curvy progress - with the dress on the dummy I drew on the curvey seam lines in pencil. Then cut and pinned. Front and back both curve in toward the armholes and this gives a lovely fitted shape to the dress.
29th September 2012: wip - tailoring the dress Since the uniform shape is so shapeless, I have started re-tailoring the whole thing into more of a fitted dress shape. All the pockets have been carefully unpicked and also the sleeves. Pic shows the dress pinned where I want my new seams to flow and make it very fitted around bust and waist.
28th August 2012: Base dress Nurse uniform dress arrived today. Dissapointed tbh ..Could it be any more shapeless? - it will need loads of alteration to get that sexy fitted look. So this how it looks before alteration.
23rd August 2012: Props Whilst on holiday I found a great syringe prop inside a gift shop. Its actually a novelty pen, but looks spot on for this cosplay even has the red liquid inside. The pen part is easliy removable. Just need to add a pretend 'needle' for theatrical impact.
cosrai - 22nd August 2012 Good choice! This will be awesome!
Nymphie - 23rd August 2012 I'm torn between squealing insanely and making so many 'Oh matron' jokes right now. I will definitely keep my eyes peeled at Expo for you. :)
HotshotShan - 23rd August 2012 this will be so fabulous oh my goodness, can't wait to see progress!
Captain_Marvelous - 23rd August 2012 Very cool will have to resist urge to touch inappropriately! <3
Ranma1-2 - 23rd August 2012 Thanks guys. ^_^ Base uniform is ordered. Hopefully will just need to take in the seams to custom fit me in a nice curvy way -_^ When that is done I can show some progress pics.
Captain_Marvelous - 29th August 2012 Ahaha like all nurses uniforms are like sexy fitted slut ones? XD generically Nurse unifroms are just literally tubes of fabric with collars. XD
Ranma1-2 - 29th August 2012 Its how I pictured nurses uniforms ..but yeah lots of altering to make this one fit all nice and curvey. Curvey is good. ^_^

street-angel - 2nd November 2012 Wow I had no idea you had so many props @>@
