Your reproduction of this costume is so wonderful! May I ask where you found your fabrics?

not a prob though most were from a fabric wearhouse locally for me, silkbaron.com and joann for skirtings
the bodice fabric I got in Chicago.

I do! If you're available for sewing commissions, I have something in mind, but I understand if you're too busy. <3

It depends on what it is and when it is needed by. ^^ It's getting busy but I can always use the extra money.

Are you planning on bringing this back to D*C? I'd love to see the improved bodice!
(Also, I adore your eyebrows. CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR FACE.)

Yeah I totally intend to bring her back. Won't have screen accurate bodice fabric but it's still much improved from the first one. There is something about this costume that I just have to continually improve on. I wish she had more outfits so I could be her more often in Cannon. XD

Yours was really great with the fabric you had! She is def. the hardest costume to get just right. recreating from tv is so much Different then from anime. I do think if you have time and money it's fun to go back and improve old costumes just to see where you have improved.
I just need to really move on. Too many costumes on my bucket list to just work on her forever.

But hey, if she's a character you really love, you ought to stick with her!
And sometimes I'll see some really gorgeous uber-expensive fabric and think HOLY GOD THAT WOULD MAKE A BEAUTIFUL SKIRT, etc. I'm not particularly interested in matching screen accuracy down to a T in that department. We do plan to make the skirt a little longer, since it turned out shorter than we expected.
