Series - Final Fantasy X

For the Saturday of Sakura Con we (*FightingDreamersPro ) did a Final Fantasy X group. This outfit was a pain in the ass with all the belts, eyelets, and the hand painting that finished at 6am on Wednesday which gave me just enough time to shower before school =_= Plus it was my first time making a corset and the boning took a while to figure out @.@'

I keep joking that this is my first 'girl cosplay' (no kolibri, I don't count Luna! Because that was a closet Harry Potter).

I got lots of compliments on my boobies....yay?

Some guys gave me the thumbs up and some people took my photo at a PRETTY LOW point of view but whatever X'D It was fun and as the wise saying goes, "Flaunt what your mama gave ya".

Do you have any tips for this cosplay? I plan to do it in the next few months with my neice as Vidina.

Hmm, I guess the biggest thing is to make sure you have 2 skirts.
One skirt which is two layers where all your belts will be sandwiched between.
And the outer skirt which will just sit on top. You don't want the weight of the belts pulling it down.

Good luck!

Hmmm i bought all my fabric for my Lulu cosplay today, and i'm having a little trouble, how did you do the sleeves and skirt? (I have no access to patterns)

Valdrein In reply to WitchOfHeartCosplay [2012-02-29 06:17:26 +0000 UTC]

Ha, I never use patterns, don't worry :'D
The skirt and sleeve and pretty much circle skirts.

If you don't mind me asking^^' What fabric did you use?

Valdrein In reply to Hellhellohel [2011-02-13 01:18:36 +0000 UTC]

Thank you ^^
For the skirt I used a vinyl fabric and for the corset it was a fabric similar to a crush velvet.

Thanks for you'r reply

Valdrein In reply to Hellhellohel [2011-02-14 23:20:03 +0000 UTC]

Oh! Awesome <3
Yeah, the vinyl I found great for the sleeves and top skirt. It also lets you cut her small flower designs without fraying. And I recommend doing two skirts. One to hold all the belt and the second just to float on top so it won't pull with the weight of your belts.

Good Luck ^^ <3

maydei [2010-07-27 15:16:38 +0000 UTC]

Waah, you are such an epic Lulu! So pretty, and I can hardly believe that you made that dress... it's so complicated! But it turned out amazing, but what can I say? You are just boss like that.

I want to cosplay Lulu at some point in the future I noticed that it's nearly impossible to buy the hair sticks, and I figure that you must have made yours, so here's my n00b question of the day: What did you make them out of? And where did you buy your materials (as in, a craft store, etc)?

*is shot* Anyway, this is epic, as all of your cosplays are. :3 Amazing work!

Valdrein In reply to maydei [2010-07-28 02:30:43 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much

For the hair sticks I used metal coat hangers for the base and scuply for the designs. You can also use paper clay and they both can be found at a Michales craft store (there all over North America I believe)

maydei In reply to Valdrein [2010-07-28 02:52:58 +0000 UTC]

That's a really good idea! I wouldn't have thought of the coat hangers. I was thinking about wooden dowels, but then I was afraid of them burning and/or catching on fire if I did the details in polymer clay.

Ahh, this will make my life so much easier! XD Thank you so much!

Oh, and by the way, I loved Bad Boxmance. I remember the original Adventures of Fox and Box when you guys first put them out, and it was great to see another volume added to the epic series. I never get tired of it! X3

Thank you again! <3

If I added it up I'm sure it would X'D
But a lot of the belts I made with extra leather and vinyl I had left over from other cosplays. Same with the corset. And I have a box of scuply X'D I'm a major pack rat ^^'
