Where to begin. This costume took me about 4 full days to complete (60hrs) and that does not include the props. My cosplay partner, Foayasha, made the top hat, cane, garters, and cut and fixed my boots. She also hand painted all the yellow stripes, all of them
I drafted the pattern and made the whole costume, undershirt, vest, pants, bustle, tail, and jacket. Let me tell you I almost cried with the jacket, it is not the easiest thing to make. It is fully lined and fitted and it took about 40 feet of the white cord trim which I also made myself. The back of the jacket is a half circle which accommodates the bustle and tail. I did make a bustle out of rigilene for it, but it is not a full bustle like the one I made for Madame Red.
I also made the Madame Red but Foayasha helped alot with it, she hand pressed all the ruffles and made all the black bias tape for the trim. - Personal Thoughts:
- I think I am a horrible Ciel
