✦ ABOUT THE BUILD ✦
This cosplay is my biggest project to date. Every element was chosen for accuracy and practicality. I matched textures implied in the game design and selected fabrics that could withstand wear. The standout challenge was the hand-sewn, hand-gathered petticoat (wearing gloves the whole time because the netting was brutal) and engineering the detachable braided pigtails with internal wire armature and magnetic attachments.
