Hello and welcome to the Crafts & Textiles cosplay/costume photo sticky. Here you can post images of your prized works or collaborations. We ask that you follow a few simple guidelines when posting here, to keep things nice and happy, and to avoid breaking the brains of your fellow Gaians.
If possible, please follow the format below when posting.
Character the costume was designed to look like. (if specific character)
Which anime, game, movie, book, etc the character is from. (if any)
If the costume is a collaborative work, or you purchased pre-made pieces, please tell us what you actually did yourself. Your work must be a noticable part of the costume! "I fixed a broken seam" or "I glued the ball to the stick" doesn't count! Design work on original costumes is acceptable.
What supplies you used (optional)
Who the model is, if there is one. You do not need to have photos of somebody wearing the costume, but I'm sure they'd appreciate credit if you posted their photo.
The photo!
Snow Sugar from Snow Sugar Fairy. Indoor photograph is by No-Name Anime, taken at Fanime 2002. The outdoors are from Cherry Blossom Festival 2002 (Japantown, San Francisco) taken by whomever I handed my camera to.
Materials? Many... from the polyester section of Joanns.
This took me a week to make... about 15 hours of actual labor. There was a lot of little stuff to make for it. Hat, chocker, purse (functionable), gloves, blouse, bloomers, underskirt, overskirt, socks, boots, tail/bow and wings. For Fanime 2003 I added an extra skirt layer to make it shinier.
