Series: Fairy Tail
Costume Creation: The main dress is a modified Marilyn Monroe style dress so that it was cut and open in the front. The belt, gloves, and collar the red fabric is a basic linen fabric. The leggings were a spandex white fabric, with ribbed gold spandex fabric for the top and I did a black embroidery stitch along the outside to define the lines more from a distance.
The wig was a TRIP. So this wig is 2 wigs sewn together because I wanted it to be SUPER voluminous. The bun was made with some leftover shorter wefts from the one wig and a half of a styrofoam ball and then spray glued those wefts over it. Then I attached a rare earth magnet to the bottom and into the wig so the bun could easily come apart if need be. The wings on the bun were just 2mm craft foam, worbla and white acrylic paint.
The swords is what everyone wants to know about! My brother helped me design how it would rig up since I wanted each sword to be easily detachable. The base is PVS and the harness was around my waste under the dress and the red waste belt so you couldn't see it. The yellow pieces on the back and the pieces that screwed into the PVC pipe were 3D printed pieces that he designed and ordered. It was a twist and lock method so that all i had to do was lift the sword of slightly for them to come off. The swords themselves were each made with 2 in. insulation foam.
