Description as Hazuki Mina (leek) for *otakitty 's Gestumento Heiki Mina group

I made this entire costume out of leftover and sale fabrics. In hindsight, making a Chinese style dress out of pvc probably wasn't the best idea. Haha. The ears, shoulder leeks, and staff were very fun to create! I'm still trying to find a place to store them though. XD I posted a few progress pics of this costume on our FB page: [link]

did an awesome job with the photo, and both of your Gestumento Heiki Mina costumes were very well done.

Yeah pcv doesn't seem like it would be nice to wear in 100+ degrees heat, but it did look good (just have to wait for cooler weather)

Thank you! Yeah, I definitely want to wear it again in cooler weather. These pics turned out better than I thought considering how sweaty we all were. By the time this picture was taken I was overheated and feeling shaky. Plus someone brought out water bottles while Morataya was taking these pics of me so I couldn't really focus on posing. All I could think about was delicious water. Lol!

Very nice work! I love that metallic red you used for the gloves and ears. How did you get the leeks to stay on the wig?

Thank you! The metallic spandex was leftover from our Odin Sphere fire vulcan costumes. I sewed giant metal snaps from JoAnn's to the shoulders of the dress and the leeks to secure them. I wanted to be able to remove and rotate the leeks easily since the character's leeks aren't always in the same position. If you look closely, you can kinda see one of the snaps in the picture.
