This is one of those costumes that I knew I was going to do the moment that I saw it. The character’s design was so beautiful and elaborate that she seemed to have been created just for cosplayers like myself! I started working on it in December 2013, really only a few weeks after the game was released, and finished it in time to wear it at Naka-Kon in March 2014. It was much more time consuming than most costumes that I have made, but I am very satisfied with the result.

As uncomfortable as the costume may look, I would not complain a bit about wearing the sleeves or the shoes. I actually quite enjoyed the little challenges that they posed. However, having such long hair to manage on top of everything else made wearing the costume a bit of a pain. It’s a shame, because with different hair this might have been my favorite costume ever to wear.

I was really happy with the reception that this costume had at cons. Many people complimented me on my ability to walk in such ridiculous shoes, which are 3" tall at the toe and 5" tall at the heel.
