Description

I had a marathon of this series recently and really fell in love with it. I wasn't going to cosplay from it since my cosplay list is pretty large this year...but right after finishing it I was SO tempted to! So I did. And here I am.

I am pretty happy with how the costume came out, though things do need some fixing--like maybe evening out the skirt a bit so it doesn't look so bumpy in the front. If I am not lazy I will fix it!

In an attempt to get the bell-like shape of the uniform I bought a hoop skirt and cut it to the third hoop and took out the very top hoop.
The problem was that some of the hoops jutted out funny since I changed it so much...so it threw everything off. I had to adjust the hoops SO much and at the time I wished that I just went with a normal petticoat. XDD But in the end I adjusted it as best I could and I am sort of pleased with it. NOT TOTALLY. But I guess it's okay.

I also attached the hoop skirt to the dress so it wouldn't slip down and show the more I moved around too much.

This was also the first time I sharpied a wig! I used a light pink wig as the base for the top and bought long pink extensions and attached it to the short wig.
I colored them with orange and peach sharpies.

(EDIT) Okay, I wasn't as lazy as I thought I would be and fixed up the whole costume!
Then I fixed the skirt for a third time...
But I think I am finally happy with it!
