Description

I sewed the pants using Burda pattern #7791. I used a 2-way stretch microsuede wrong-side out, because it was the only shiny accurate color I could find. I airbrushed the inner and outer thighs and topstitched the black piping. If I can find 4-way stretch fabric, I'll definitely replace the pants because they limit my mobility somewhat. >_< I sewed the bootcovers and belt out of pleather. The belt buckle I scavenged from a thrift store belt. The shirt was also a lucky thrift store find; all I did was crop it. The wig was an old, ratty yellow wig that I cut, dreaded, and dyed. I made a tutorial and posted a pattern for the silicone suspenders.
