The wig. Oh how I love my wig. That wig was originally my Yuki wig. Then I dyed it blonde for my Hunny costume. Then I stripped that dye, added some extensions, and sharpied it into a purple-magenta-red gradient. I hadn't been able to decide what color hair I wanted (pink like the books? purple like the movie?), and since it's never mentioned what color hair she had as a student, I threw them both in there!

The robe pattern was made by staring at screenshots to try to replicate the seams and the shape of the hood correctly, then combining a few store-bought patterns with a rub-off of an existing robe, then altering, then altering some more. The costume is mostly based off the GoF and OOTP movie versions. The skirt has two kick pleats in the front. The tie was a bit meticulous due to all the stripes, but quick and fun.
