Thank you~ the top is a corset that one of my friends sold to me, I changed the lacing to grey on the front and orange in the back (I do plan on making a new, more accurate corset top for it). The skirt used to be this really really really ugly wedding dress (being brutally honest lol XD) that has been altered. Took the top part off, Pinned and cut sooo much of the front and fixed the sides up a bit. I made the headress from scratch. I had blue rose clips that I took apart, added a few bright blue small feathers and glued them on. The fluff, arm bands, wings and tail was all done from scratch as well. The tail was actually part of extra scraps from the arm bands, really happy with how the it turned out in the end, although it needs more stuffing in it and pin it up some more. The tail also has a wire in it on the top to keep shape and be able to bend it. I made the pattern for the wings, sewed them together then added the wiring in. Took soooo long TTATT" I was really happy with how they turned out in the end as well. In the pictures they don't look as good as they should/do in person. The fluff, all the feathers were made individually then placed in order and hand stitched them together and hand stitched onto the skirt. The gloves I took some grey ribbon and sewed them on at the end, changed the black lacing to orange (Which I will be changing to white). They were attached to the arm bands but the thread snapped and I found it much easier being seperate than attached so I left them. The choker was probably the most difficult thing for me to do. It kept sliding and stretching so it was really difficult to get it to stay the way I wanted it to. both the grey bands like to clash together so i'm going to put in a very light, smooth wire behind it to keep shape. This took soooo long to make and so many changes and alterations and adding and taking away XD lol i'm really happy with the end results on this though~ Also I got a new white curly wig for this cosplay so it will look and be much better than the one I was wearing then. My last one shed so much and was constantly getting into huge knots eventually you could see almost the entire netting in the back. It was pretty bad, especially since this wig is really old. My new one is a little shorter but it's less likely to get tangled and it's brighter and just- Iloveitsomuchaaaaaaaa. lol XD
