What can I say about this complex baby? more or less that she's entirely hand sewn and painted.
I spent nearly 300 dollars alone on supplies: she's crafted from Satin, Gold Charmuese, every gold piping and trim known to man, crushed velvet, and brocades. I hand stitched all of the large designs, like the griffons on her back, and used tulip puffy paint to line the edges. yep, puffy paint and fabritac held most of this costume together. XD the soul edge was a 3 month sculpt with latex, foam and clay and the base blade made of plexi glass. Unfortunately, i'm not entirely the physique of ivy, so I wore it only for that day and quickly changed. i'd love to remake it now that i'm confidently losing weight and actually know how to make a working corset. XD
