Construction Details:

Pretty straightforward construction, but I wanted more natural looking fibers like an elf would have and focused on all the tiniest stupid details like how many stripes each shoulder trim had. The jacket and skirt were made from cotton broadcloth, bodice and shorts from knit ponte, corset from a brown cotton, and belt from vinyl but top stitched to match the look in reference art. I clipped each trim by hand on the tights, shorts, shoulders, arms and bottom of duster and sealed with Fray Check. Wig ponytail clip were bought on Ebay, hair piece was several layers of tulle with ribbon, Aradani ears were attached with eyelash glue.

Personal Thoughts:

ACP approached me asking if I'd like to work for Aniplex with their push of Sword Art Online, and Leafa's design was generally up my alley. Ashe of FoxGloves Cosplay asked me to bring Leafa to Fanime where we had a lot of fun frolicking around, and I got to play with GS Prop's sword.
