Description as Jolyne
from the manga Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean

I decided to work on Jolyne Kujo for a Stone Ocean cosplay pair with Tranquility as my Hermes Costello. These are fun, flashy outfits and I love every part of them! Making the wig was extremely fun.. I used extra wefts from other costumes and an old wig I already had for the base. I also got to use stretch material again, which is something I really liked. All the "metallic" bits were cut out, rolled, pressed, and added by hand. I also got to do some beading, which I really have never done before. Making this costume was a challenge in many areas, and I'm really proud of the results. I only hope I can do Jolyne justice! ^_^

Was there a tutorial you used for her wig? I know there are tutorials for attaching hair buds like that somewhere (most likely for Sailor Moon) and yours looks so nice I just wanted to see how you did them! Thanks!

I did use a tutorial for the hair buns. I mostly followed Katie Bair's tutorial on stubbing: [link]

Then I made the buns out of foam which I carved into shape and made hollow on the inside. I painted them, covered them in wig hair and glued them right on top of the stubs.

I love that wig, and you sewed the stretch material so well. Very impressive and you look really good as the character. I hope I can learn how to do that stuff sometime.

Hey, thanks so much! That specific type of stretch material was actually pretty easy to work with. If you ever need something shiny, I highly recommend using it :3

Alright all keep that in mind. Any tips or tricks you learned sewing a stretch material?

I would say just take your time, don't pull too much on the fabric when machine sewing and remember to use a looser stitch setting on your machine so that it still stretches. It's a little different but since the fabric is stretchy, it's easier to fit things. I love it!

Thank you. I will keep that in mind next time I attempt stretch fabric. :3
