Purple capes were a staple of my cosplay choices for a while.
I love Blazblue/Guilty Gear even if I'm not great at fighting games! Carl is someone I'd never really seen cosplayed, so I decided that'd be fun to try and tackle. Part of this costume (the yellow balancer) was signed by Toshimichi Mori, which is super cool! He was really excited to see a Carl Clover.

The entire costume was made by myself. I had to remake the top hat and shoes a couple times, as I wore this costume quite a bit.
