Headpiece(flower crown)- I really wanted this costume to look as realistic as possible so instead of going with the 5 HUGE flowers I went with smaller cherry blossoms. The insides weren't quite dark enough and painting was to thick so I ended up using lipstick and eyeshadow XD
Wig- cut and styled myself took about 5 hours total since this was my first wig cutting experience I really like the way it turned out.
White over dress- first things first this thing is 10 yards alone on the skirt portion the bottom circumference of the circle skirt is 5 yards. Then 2 on each sleeve. and yes they were sleeves of doom as one cosplayer stated. The puff part took 4 mock ups to get the right shape. Then the long hangy bit. Again i wanted it to be real and since I was gonna die of heat in this thing I shortened them a tinny bit from the picture length. All of the burgundy is hand made bias and all the gold ribbon and bias is sewn on.
Pink under layer- So again 5 yards on the skirt I opted not to double line this as I was already sweating in just the white layer XD it will be getting a gold bias round the bottom. The top was a little ghetto XD I ran out of material to do a full sleeve in the coral color so i had to patchwork in some pink but hey it's under the white anyway xD
Mid Obi-On Mock one the entire flower was hand beaded! about 30+ hours of seed beads. However it got destroyed in a move so Mock two was a satin stitched applique. I like the clean lines of the new one^^
