Construction Details:

The construction here is very basic. The shirt is your basic collared shirt with an altered hem and added details. The skirt is, well, a pleated skirt. The belts and such were annoying but not difficult. The megaphone was my first spray paint project involving masking a design, and I think it turned out pretty well. All in all, I'm please, but it took way too long to finish and there are plenty of things I would do differently, after the fact.

Personal Thoughts:

Well this costume took forever. I started it by making the skirt back in December of last year. December! I didn't get around to finishing the thing until this month. Ridiculous. Still, I tried to do the best possible job, paying attention to every piddly little detail in the original art. If I had it all to do over again (oh please no) I would use a finer fabric (this fabric was course and fairly thick, which was a pain) with a brighter color, and there are alot of places in the construction that are fairly slapdash or bulky that I would do differently as well. For the photoshoot, I would have paid better attention to how the belts affect the skirt. It's prone to bunching if I move around. If I ever do another photoshoot, I now know what to watch out for. Regardless, I'm proud of the result. It's an amazing, powerful design and I hope I was able to do it some credit.
