What a fun group! We went all the way and matched fabrics, wigs, and props :D
This was a lesson in inset panels, let me tell you. The result was awesome, but gosh, was it tedious! I basically patterned it the same way as I did my Tactician coat, where I made a mock-up, drew on the designs, and then cut it apart and added seam allowances when I cut my final fabric. The hat is just heavy cardstock and craft foam, wrapped with the same fabric as the rest of the outfit. I made the Velvet Room button with craft foam and sealed with white glue, which painted up super nicely. The hat has strings attached to the inside of it which allow me to literally tie it to my wig.
Tsubasahime made our matching grimoires, which had inset blue lights and bluetooth speakers. Squad on point.
Worn at Katsucon '15.
