About this Costume
- Construction Details:
-
I began construction on the collar to begin the project. I soldered a wire frame together and fit a fosshape form to it. I made the tubes for the collar ruffles and hand sewed them onto the fossshape. I covered the back of the collar with a fabric similar to what I imagine the character would wear. I used creative freedom on the back of the costume as well as the legs since they are not shown in the official Sakizou Art image. Next I tackled the underbust. I printed a pattern from instructables and modified it to suit my needs. I created the bustle and bra by freehanding a pattern and altering it until it fit properly. I constructed the whip from leather and a dowel rod.
- Personal Thoughts:
- This is a great introduction level Sakizou to introduce some of the costume construction techniques you will need in more advanced versions.

- Wig Review
- As all long wigs do, it can get frizzy. To tame it I use olive oil sheen and hairspray.
