Description
This is my finished Anemone costume that I wore this Sunday for the Connichi in Kassel (Germany).It was the first time I was wearing the whole costume and I really liked it.
Unfortunately I fell down the stairs within ten minutes of wearing it and bruised my ankle so I couldn't wear my shoes anymore. Damn those high-heels.
Costume by me, photo by my boyfriend.
EDIT: A picture by the lovely RenjiKage can be found here: [link]

I will be bringing a Gulliver with me, he's too awesome to not have! And I, sadly, won't have a Dominic but we will have a group with the majority of the Gekko crew! Thanks for all the info about the skirt, it was very helpful!

Wow, the Gekko crew. That's awesome. Some of the crew are hardly ever cosplayed.

Yeah we're going to have Holland, Talho, Moondoggie, Gidget, Renton, Eureka, Stoner, Probably a Mattheiu, and I'm trying to persuade a Hilda and a Woz to come along... I wish we could get the last few members (and a Dominic!) because it would be so amazing to get a HUGE group shot!

I've posted some pictures of my costume, and a Gulliver purse I made from your tutorial if you want to see them. Thanks for all of your help!

You're such a great Anemone! I'm working on her now, and I was wondering, is your skirt a full circle skirt or smaller? I'm trying to decide how big I want my hula hoop skirt to be!

Thanks a lot!
It's such fun cosplaying Anemone. Will you bring a Gulliver? And do you have a Dominic?
About my skirt: it's made from four panels that make up less than a circle skirt. I used a water hose (for high pressures thus very stiff) in the red hoop-part and decided beforehand how big I wanted my skirt to be and divided this by four. It's probably better to make the skirt a little smaller (I couldn't see my feet and fell down the stairs) and to make the hoop part more flexible.
You can also look at these two ladies, their costumes are also superb: [link] and [link]
There's a Gulliver pattern in my gallery and there are some plushies of him on DA, too

Nice feet.
I just did something similar a few minutes ago. I found a concrete bench with my shin. Gas masks have very limited visibility. Awesome costume!

Gas masks? Sounds like LARP.
Thanks

Definitely not LARP. I was cleaning a cat skeleton so I can paint it and assemble it for a Senior Seminar project.

Ah, now that's even more interesting. It sounds a little crazy 
Will there be pictures of it on DA?

I know it sounds completely crazy and creepy, but I found it in my back yard, so I figured why not.
There will definitely be pics up soon of the skull, once I finish detailing it.
