I really wanted to be Ruby for Anime Expo 2016 since 6 members of Aqours, including Ruby's actress, were going to be there, but I didn't have time to make much. So, I put together the simplest thing I could find, her CYaRon album cover outfit.

I butchered my Otonokizaka summer uniform shirt, adding to the collar, black bias tape on the sleeves, and swapping black buttons for the clear/white ones.

I made the skirt from two circles, finished it with a rolled hem, and sewed on white bias tape to make the stripe. I just put a black petticoat underneath and let it stick out. The waistband also has black bias tape going through the center and hooks closed on the side above the invisible zipper.

First wig is just my old Nagisa wig, second wig is from Arda. I made the hair clips by covering ping pong balls with a stretchy microfur leftover from Snow Halation. You can't see her feet in the album cover, so I just wore some black boots I had.

Ganbaruby!!
