This was never a costume I had planned to do. Thursday night before SakuraCon 2009, I was packing, and trying on wigs. When I tried on this one, I couldn't shake the feeling that it looked like SOMEONE.
About half an hour later, I realized who I thought it looked like, and proceeded to search google, to see if I could throw together a Closet Cosplay. The most dominant image presented, was the Opera Gown. A quick trip to Value Village, and I found a dress that, while too long, was the perfect style. I bought it for 10 dollars, took it home, slit the side, and picked all o the beading off of it. The gun was borrowed from BlitzAceTidus, and once belonged to her Gunner Yuna costume.
Not bad for an hours worth of work, I guess. ^^
