Awesome Alice cosplay! As someone who has been cosplaying Alice for almost three years, I do have a few tips to help you become a better Alice. If I am coming off too harsh, my apologies.
- If you are doing the outfit in the recent game, the symbol on the right pocket of your apron is suppose to be upside down.
- Trim the upper part of your apron around the sleeve area. This will make the sleeves of the dress stand out more.
- Fix the sleeves so they look more poofy rather than rolled back.
- Think about wearing a petticoat to add some more body to your dress. In many pictures of her as well as in the game, Alice's dress has an A-line frame (meaning that its slender on top but flairs at the bottom, looking like a capitol "A").
- I cannot tell from the photo, but you might want to dabble more into Alice makeup and hair.
Alice has some sort of bangs that cover her forehead, but otherwise you hair is perfect.
As for the makeup you want to emphasize the eyes and the face.
Alice should look tired and pale. Not too pale so that she looks like a bed sheet, but Ms. Liddell isn't a bronzed goddess either. What is most important for Alice Liddell is her eyes. They eyes are the windows to the soul as they say. You want to use a dark brown or even black shadows around her eyes and lids. Don't go past the crease of your eyes or else you will look like a prostitute from the Tangled Mermaid. Add a little burgundy or even a dark pinkish red above the black to make the eyes stand out more. Define your brows and use a nude lipstick for the lips top top it all off.
If you want to, fool around with fake blood. I personally LOVE doing this because then you can really be in character and scare people.
Good luck, darlin'
Oh, I recoment you watch this makeup tutorial to get some idea on Alice's eyes [link]

The pocket was something i realized after I had finished the costume and couldn't do anything about so I just left it, I don't really care.
I did originally have a petticoat with it, but i didn't like how it was looking, this was my first time wearing the costume so it was a brief test run so see how it was all working. I Never got around to messing with the wig to add in the bangs.Makeup is still a work in progress, but this image isn't the best to see it, in closer up photos it's much more obvious. I usually will do my makeup a bit different every time I cosplay a character just to see what's working and what's not working. I originally wanted to go with more nude looking lips but looking at screen captures from game play she defently has colour to her lips so I did try to go with something a little on the subtle side.
All in all, I made this costume in about a week just for fun, I plan to do minor adjustments to it before my next con with it in March but since it's not for competition I'm not very picky.

Ah okay~ I was just giving a helpful critique. Regardless, your cosplay is very good for something done in only a week.
