About this Costume

O GOD this dress. For the pattern, I used a homemade lolita JSK pattern. The fabric is all glitter Casa Satin from JoAnn, each dot cut and appliqued to the main dress. The lights are RGB chaser strips in a sheer casing. The wires go ALL OVER THE PLACE it's the worst. The battery pack attaches to a sorta garter belt which keeps the batteries & LED controller somewhat more stable. I can control the lights with the controller's infared remote, it has a few built-in modes!

nThe katamari is a purse, made by a friend who is a crochet magician. It's constructed around a hamster ball so it never loses it's shape, and the nubs are all squishy so I don't bruise myself all day. - Personal Thoughts:
- Please love yourself and buy quality LEDs, not the cheapest possible option from Amazon. T__T

nThe best thing EVER was meeting Keita Takahashi at PAX! He signed my dress!
