So I have jumped on the bandwagon of Naruto cosplay. My friends suggested that I could make a good Hinata. So I pondered about it, and thought, "Alrighty!" It also helps that I have buddies cosplaying other Naruto characters with me! (Unfortunaltey our group is lacking! I.E- No Naruto!)
Whee! Hinata is so cute, so it is fun cosplaying her!
Unfortunately I don't have white contacts with this costume--which is sad since that is a key part! I use blue ones or grey ones that I have for other costumes, for the sole purpose of trying to make my eyes lighter. (I have DARK brown eyes...) Maybe someday I'll get the right ones! The ones I want are sort of expensive, and unfortunately will make me blind partially. (Which is ironically opposite of Byakugan...) But for now, the grey will have to do.
Status: Everything is basically done with this costume! I basically redid the WHOLE thing so I have 2 versions. I bought a new jacket and altered it, new pants (the old ones frayed) and altered them, I made the fluffy stuff goes ALL the way around, re-did the patches, wig styled better (thanks to my friend Ami Yuy), and made new shoes! Yeah. And there is always room for improvement. ^^;
And at some point I definitely want to do other Hinata cosplays...
