Description Costume write up! I always knew when I made this costume I would use velvet, you can tell by the in game texture that the fabric is NOT satin. Sometimes you can take artistic liberties, but I wanted to stay accurate to the game and the time period with this costume. I searched around online and found the perfect shade of blue velvet and made my purchase on eBay. I used Simplicity pattern 2953 to make the skirt, I did a hand gather on the side instead of cutting the fabric to be asymmetrical. For the bolero I used Simplicity 0788, I had to alter this pattern a bit on the collar and sleeves but it was an easy alteration. Corsets scare me so I opted to buy one on Amazon and alter it, I hand sewed on the lace and all of the black ribbon. It ended up being a little too big on me so I added side darts so that it would be more form fitting.

You look so beautiful. That velvet material looks very nice. Your cosplay is great. I heard the game is good but I might not play it until much later in the future.

You always get the right feel for a character! You are more than a cosplayer, you are an artist, and an actress!
