Construction Details:

Shirt: I took the base of my red tube top and used it as a draft. Later, noticed it keeps opening in the middle ALOT (not in a good way). So...my father proposed we used metal grommets on the sides of the middle part to keep it there. (Thanks dad!) Also... I am wearing a stick-on bra to prevent any wardrobe malfunctions.

Skirt: was actually fairly easy on the dyeing (considering its my first time to gradient dyeing). Also, I like the fact that I found a cotton fabic that has a crinkle effect naturally like in the artwork and CGI picture^^

Hair: ppffttt...just a Short wig with my long hair sticking out under and putting extra length on it ^^;;;; I used wire ribbon to cover and the wire helps to hold it in place..^^ Then added the white with pink gradient cloth later. ^^

Zanarkand Symbol: hard as the shirt itself >>; first prototype was using the black acrylic glue thing ONLY but turned out it came out floppy and too soft. The final design was using Black Craft Foam with Resin coat.

The Belt: is modified from a old purse and touched up with acrylic paint too ( due to minor cracks). The medallions of the belt (the circle things) are actually made from 4 ply illustration board and beads. Spray painted and super glued gave it a old tarnished look like the old west films (and how a adventurer supposed to look lol).

Necklace: gone through SOOOO many changes through the years since its debut...
2010= Inaccurate Bootleg I bought from a anime store
2011= handmade pendant thats accurate to the official size
2012 and beyond= Official SquarEnix pendant.

Staff= reused from my Summoner Yuna cosplay. Foamcore and a Broom stick.
