I absolutely love making costumes and dressing up in them. ; ) Not sure why. But since I've done so, I figured that I should probably put up a page showing off some of my collection of costumes. This, needless to say, does not have all of them as I don't have scanned pictures of them all, but I'll try to put more up as I take more and make more. If you want to, e-mail me.
Anime Costumes
Me as Eris, from Slayers. I
look better in high heeled boots, but technically the costume has very
low heeled boots. How boring. ; ) The best part of this costume
is running around with red gumdrops and sticking them on people's heads.
Me as Yui, from Fushigi Yugi. Note
certificate I'm holding. I won "Artistic Superiority, Veteran Individual"
at Fanime in 2002. OK, it's not a high honor like a Nobel Prize,
but whatever. Unfortunately, the necklace is turned around.
I danced in this costume, which was hard as the back's a little constraining.
Here I am as Celes from Final Fantasy
VI. The picture is a little blurry, but it's the best one I have
scanned. I won an award at Fanime for this one as well (in 2001),
but I won't tell you which. ; ) I sung in this outfit, which
was nice as I finally got to show off how much (or little) I learned from
being part of a choir.
That's all for now! I'm hoping to get up pictures of my latest costume (Armitage), and earlier costumes such as Miya-sama from Brother, Dear Brother and Relena from Gundam Wing. I also have a lot of original costumes, including light banded mail, a princess dress (very pink), and a beautiful pink foamy robe. Incidentally, I made parts of the Eris costume and all of the Yui costume. Yay!
