About this Costume
- Construction Details:
-
Started/Planned: Winter 2013
Completed: May 2014
Worn at: Anime Oasis 2014
Parts Made: Everthing but the shoes, though the full costume transformation process included a lot of pieces from previous Clow costumes too.
New Skills: Mariner's compass with disco dot fabric. Ugh. Turned up collars. Hidden separating zipper. Not screwing up mandarin collars.
Awarded: Second Place Craftsmanship - Anime Oasis 2014
Babble:
How could I possibly try to look as awesome as Calhale did in her red rose ballgown? MORE SPARKLY! I used Clow's style and bits of Sebastian from Kuroshitsuji for inspiration, along with the color palette of my beautiful Yuuko.
We had a story and we intended to tell it.
- Personal Thoughts:
- Clow Reed only has 4 costumes, and two of them are nearly identical to one another. So... I've taken to inventing new ones to coordinate with my Yuuko de jour. (I'm acquiring a harem at this point. XD)
At Anime Oasis, you either go big, or go home, so I brought three costumes for transformations, and Cal brought four.
Wig Details
- Styling Notes
- Needs to be pulled back into a new fresh pony tail every con.
- Wig Review
- After several cons and a lot of layers, he's holding up well. I love the part and the hairline on this wig.
