Taokaka Cosplay Halp?? :'D

Why hello, I'm planning to cosplay Taokaka from BlazBlue for A-Kon and I have two questions.

1. What kind of fabric should I use?? I don't want it to be floppy or crease. I have an idea, but I can't remember what it's called. :'D <- isuseless

2. Since I'm a complete newbie at sewing, how would I go about making her paws?? I want to have them able to open or come off so I can grab things and push the elevator button and what not. I'm thinking a velcro closing at the bottom of the paw, like under the pawprint to hide it, but I'd love to hear your ideas. :3

There's LOTS of discussion on Taokaka's paws and coat materials in the Blazblue cosplay thread, and I even patterned out a Kaka/Grimalkin sleeve guide for everyone to use Take a look and post there if you need more help!

Most Taokaka cosplayers seem to use fleece for her coat.
