Description
Annnd, my finished Belarus cosplay. I've been sewing for days on end, but it's done and done.There will eventually be pics of me in it at some point <_<
I'm so happy I managed to get these [mine and ~acid-flier 's China] done in time. This will be the first Halloween I've ever managed to complete our costumes a few days before the fact.
Go me xD
I ended up shortening the apron [a lot] because after posting the WIP shot of this and stepping back to look at it, the length was bugging me too much. I'm glad I did, it looks better shorter.

Could you tell me from what type of collar is that? I noticed that it had folds in it but I don't know what is is called.

It's just a modified bib collar, with pin tuck pleats ^^

Do you have any tips for making this particular cosplay? Because I could use all the help and advice I can get for this cosplay. I have roughly 3 months until my next con, and all of my new Hetalia cosplayer friends I made at the last con I went to are going to do Hetalia cosplay again, and they really REALLY want me to cosplay with them, so we could be a little group at the con.

What nice, clean work! And I commend you on those ruffles, never seen handmade ones look that good!

Beautifully done bib and bow! I absolutely love it. I am now inspired to remake my dress!

Thank you very much! I was wondering how I could touch up the costume, and yours just called out to me~ <33

O_O DUDE. Where did you get patterns for this? I'm trying to find some so I can make my own Belarus cosplay, but it's not going so well. Help, please? 👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I make my own patterns actually, this one included ^^
But if you need to find something to go off of, I suggest going to a fabric store and looking through the halloween patterns, finding one that's similar and then altering it. Or you can alter a Lolita dress pattern, if you happen to have any of the GosuRori pattern books -because Belarus's dress is basically maid/lolita styled.
Years ago [and I do mean years] when I started drafting my own patterns for cosplay, I'd find elements I needed and then splice them altogether to get what I wanted. After a while I was able to do that without having a base, but it's a good way to learn and start when it comes to drafting patterns [take a sleeve from one pattern, a bodice from another, etc etc an splice them together. That sort of thing.]

I see. T^T Thanks for the advice, though! (I'm really lucky; my roommate cosplays and sews, so she's going to help me out!)
This will be the first cosplay I actually make from scratch, and my second character cosplay. I'm really excited!
Once again, thanks for the help! And the fact that you make your own patterns just makes you that much more awesome!

Do you have any tips for making my own cosplay? I know how to sew but its just getting the dress together! Please help<3333333

Not really, sorry ^^ I just wing all of my own cosplay.
But, I guess I'd say look at plenty of design shots and screen shots, get your elements down and then bring it together... that's the only advice I can think of off the top of my head - though it's prolly not very helpful I'm sure -lol.

I'm always amazed at just how much detail you can put out in such a short period of time.

This is the cutest dress. The stripes and the pleats are still my favorite parts.
