I blame that "Hold Me Now" AMV for getting me into this series.
Kraehe/Rue is such a good character and rarely do I ever cosplay the snobby evil girls. Never imagined that I'd ever make a ballerina dress, either XD

The costume is actually made up of two fabrics. The base fabric is a shiny rustic red, and I placed sheer black overtop it so that the red sheen shows thru. The designs on the skirt are all embroidered by machine. The feathers on the skirt were cut individually so that they were pointed and not rounded.
