This was an extremely last minute costume that I agreed to do! There was a local studio photography event going on. My friend Sarah Esperkin Cosplay was planning to wear Reno to the studio shoot and had her boyfriend joining her as Rude. My bestie Thorn Queen Cosplay decided to take part as Tseng, and half-jokingly suggested I use one of my many blonde wigs to be Elena. Turns out, my old, never-to-be-used-again Fuu wig was the perfect shade of blonde for her Advent Children hair, and the style that was cut into it just happened to be a good base as well. I tried cutting and styling it, and lo and behold, it was good enough! So, just two days before the event, I agreed to grab my suit and fill in as Elena! It was a lot of fun. I think I'll keep the wig around just in case we do this again. XD
