Description

So here it is, Utena is the White Duelist. Anthy is the Dark Duelist.

~Based on an artbook picture of what is known as White Duelist Utena~

WHOA, this has been in my head for nigh on 2 years. I tried never to speak of it cause I was sure someone else would do an Anthy duelist before I got this out. It's not a far strech since she does have a dueling outfit in the manga.

That wig was light purple and curlier when I got it. It's been doused in warm water, spray dyed, and cut. It was way cool when I got fabric to match it. I wasn't going to but I made a sword of dios to go with it.
The skirt was only a minor pain and that's saying alot cause it's pleated. The jacket was fairly easy after measuring 10 times. The silver studs are snaps to close it and everwhere else they are decorations from a belt I got with a pair of jeans!
The epaulets were fun to make but getting the right materials was a &^%$@. I couldn't believe 6" silver fringe was so hard to find. 4 stores didn't have it. MJ trim didn't have it. Just one little backdoor store online had it. Then I couldn't decide if I wanted cirlces or ovals for the longest time.

And yes, I did make a sword of dios too.
