This is officially my first Sailor Moon costume^^ I loved the concept art Takeuchi-san drew for the anime series, and I'd been thinking of making one of these costumes, maybe with a whole group. I ended up choosing Mercury and cosplaying solo, as I needed a simple costume for my first US con and this one looked like it would be fun to make and wear.

I haven't seen anyone cosplay this version of Mercury before, even though a number of people were familiar with the art and recognized me - so I guess it's nice someone finally did it^^

I think the costume turned out OK and I adore the fabric I found, I just wish the skirt wouldn't make me look so fat >_< But it's comfy... I only wish I had the fancy sunglasses/vizor and mic to complete the look, I'll try and add them someday.

I love my wig ^_^ It was custom-colored, cut & styled by me (I think I never used that much Copic ink on a single wig o_o)
