About this Costume
- Construction Details:
-
I took buttons off of an old military-style vest and painted them a deep purple with nail polish. I drafted my own patterns based off of a cross between my Deedlit pattern and my FF6 Terra pattern.
I dyed some white denim a lavender color and then used a metal zipper to make sure that this super-fitted dress didn't have any wardrobe malfunctions. I made the little chef hat and lined it, with a little but of stuffing for volume.
I then 3D modeled and printed out her hair flower and painted it with acrylic paints.
I bought some off-gray boots from Amazon (they looked white in the picture), but they proved to be too dark after all. So, I painted them over with Meltonian Shoe Color spray in white.
The gloves and tights were purchased, and I used PinkyParadise violet angel eyes for contacts.

- Styling Notes
- I cut and parted the front, and whatever I removed I turned into a weft. These wefts were then sewn into the back for the two short curl pieces. I used hot rollers to get her single cartoonish curls, and sprayed them with Got2B hair spray glue to keep them in place.
