Two first cosplays... - macabre&cute-style. Help, anyone

Post by Shiranui » Sun Jan 22, 2006 3:27 pm

I'm planning on these cosplays, but I have absolutely no experience, so I'm looking for help... ;_;

I wanna wear them with cat ears, cute accessoires and a gas mask I bought on eBay. I want a strong contrast between a few macabre elements and the cuteness of the dress and ears...

First one:

I know this is gonna be hard as HELL, but I want to try...I was thinking about using my korsage as a example for the top and doing the skirt by just trying out, but does someone have some suggestions or plans on how to do this kind of dress?


The second one:

This would be easier...but less cute, so I need some ideas on how to make it all nice and gorgeous. I also thought about doing a very short skirt instead of the pants, but the main problem is the cape-thingy and the shoes...I thought about wearing knee-high boots and putting some of those black thingies (I just forgot the english word, I'm sorry) that are around the legs or that person on the point where the shoes end. Any suggestions? ^^;

I hope there is someone out here who will help me - I'm grateful for every idea. :)

For the first costume, you can customized a corsage, and you can realized the skirt with two circle of tissus^^
Good luck!

Those are very cute costumes, but I'd like to do it myself ... I don't want to buy my cosplay =/
