About this Costume
- Personal Thoughts:
- My dear friend mentioned in the picture's title uploaded a song he took a fancy to while in Japan. It got stuck in my head. He came home and uploaded the video. My eyes were replaced with sparkly hearts and I began to love the Jpop superstar Ken Hirai. If you enjoy great songs sung by really hot guys who are cute like Gackt, but without the confusion of thinking they may just be from Takarazuka, check him out. Nothing against Gackt... just sayin' he sure can make a prettier lady than I do sometimes... :) The video in question has THREE KEN HIRAIS in primary colored jumpsuits. Gall it CG magic. Somehow It was decided that Ziggy should be red Ken Hirai (which is the best one). I got the bright idea that there should be girly versions of the jumpsuits... in secondary colors. I made the obvious choice and managed to talk AyaMizu into accepting a purple fruity hotpants suit from me. The result is the above. It is of note that the girly outfits are based off a pattern from 1976. Now all we need is the complete rainbow of Ken Hirai love. Costume fun fact info: The boots are Electra 2020 in white patent from and the wig is a GRACE IB in 130t both available From CosWorx.com I forget what I got that wig for, but it is so cute and 60's like it worked out so well for Ken-chan. It went into perfect little pigtails so well, yay :)
