Backlace & Stripes + photo by

series = Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt
event = AFA D1 @ Suntec Expo, Singapore


hmmmm, this series cracked the 2 of us up when it just released so we talked about doing it, but it wasn't fully decided till about 1 month before AFA, so many thanks to *ValeforHo for giving in to our spiteful request to help out on the props despite his busy work schedule

costume wise, we spent a good 1.5 hours a saturday noon 2 weeks before AFA choosing fabrics and only started sewing the week of AFA (no, i do not understand too why it always end up like this?!) We chose the reflective *paper*(the shop staff says that's paper, not fabric) as we think it'll be nice on photos as it bounces off light from the props and environment. My blue fabric was chosen for its shine and i had to handsew it because it was way too fragile for the sewing machine to thread it (thanks *sakana for helping me with the stitches for the skirt on AFA morning itself!).

This costume was a total disaster to make because all the materials were hard and not body-hugging... so I had to resort to extreme fine-tuning to make out the shape *oTL*

Wearing 2 wigs is also very killing. We hunted around for gold and silver sandals and I had to get the expensive 5" platform-heels because *sakana bought a 4" *sobs*

and makeup! I spent 15 mins hovering over the lashes section comparing various upper and lower lashes as i think over the combination for Stocking's distinctive look. I think the shop lady was staring at me the whole time *lol*. The 3 lower lashes were separately individually stick on to intended position (friends probably know my lash-fetish and a good deal of my makeup time is usually spent on lashes...).

anyway i'm happy it's done!

Oh mai, such an awesome cosplay! I was just wondering, what did you make the halo's out of? My friend and I are planning to dress up as Panty and Stocking, seeing as we love the series, and I can't find anything good to fashion the halos out of D:

xrysx In reply to IoIIydove [2011-01-09 04:13:40 +0000 UTC]

The hearts are christmas decorative styrofoam hearts. We sprayed them to the colors we wanted~

I used corset pattern as reference. Just be more conscious where you *break* the parts for the blues and the stringed section, too wide and it'll make you look plumper.

The skirt is very short as i have a 3-layered cancan beneath to add on the overal visual length~

IoIIydove In reply to xrysx [2011-01-09 11:55:07 +0000 UTC]

Oh, I see. Where did you find them exactly? ; I haven't had any luck finding some so far.
Ahh I see. XD I'm fairly skinny (metabolism and the fact that I'm 11... probably shouldn't be cosplaying from a series like this OTL) so if anything I'm lide to look plumper, haha. XD
Yeah, I'm having trouble with the skirt part but I asked for help on Cosplay.com. My mum sells pettiskirts so if I do some jobs for her I can acquire two white ones free =w= And they're SUPER fluffy.

I mean literally, Petite size is pretty darn short and when you try to look up it there's endless frills/gathers/fluff. No chance of a panty shot (no pun intended)
Thank you for answering my questions! ;

for corset pattern, i looked at japanese magazines...
but online, i hope these 2 links can give you some ideas to start with. [link] [link]

for the silver/blue-striped skirt, it's really just a full round skirt joined to the corset-top, so i'm not sure what kind of problems you encountered. The white parts are done separately as a cancan worn under the full dress.

for your reference, my silver/blue-striped skirt is only ... i can't remember if it's 9 or 11 inches. I'm only about 5ft tall.

Ah, thank you for the links! ^_^
Yeah... my problem was with the skirt being too full. :/ I couldn't for the life of me get it to fit around it TuT The only way it would fit was adding godets, but I didn't like having the extra seams there...

xrysx In reply to IoIIydove [2011-01-10 02:18:26 +0000 UTC]

i really don't see why you have to add godets... I did it as a round skirt for the bottom part and wear cancan under, it's alright for me...

JuleexISxRamen [2010-12-07 16:43:05 +0000 UTC]

how did you get yer hair to be two colors? o:
did you buy a wig like that, or did you color one?
OR did you use two wigs?
if its two wigs, howd you make it work?
(sorry for all the questions @A@ , im wanting to cosplay stocking myself)

xrysx In reply to JuleexISxRamen [2010-12-15 03:09:27 +0000 UTC]

it's 2 different wigs, stack them together and i added a few stitches to secure then 2 layers together. Gentle reminder not to get thick wigs as it will make the head look big. Good luck and hope to see your photos soon!

JuleexISxRamen In reply to xrysx [2010-12-16 02:55:55 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much, but if I may ask one more thing?
Where did you get yer wigs at? ^^'
I have a site in mind but now I'm worried about their thickness~

xrysx In reply to JuleexISxRamen [2010-12-26 13:59:30 +0000 UTC]

i got it from china seller on ebay as their wigs tend to be thinner...
but as far as i know now, china sellers have started customising 2-toned wigs for Stocking, you should be able to get that straight and save the trouble of wearing 2 wigs...

wiccanleafsong013 [2010-12-02 21:50:58 +0000 UTC]

Did you sew/weft/combine the two wigs or just wear one on top of the other? I really want to do a Stocking Cosplay, but I'm afraid i'll just massacre two really expensive wigs if i try to combine them

xrysx In reply to wiccanleafsong013 [2010-12-03 02:02:29 +0000 UTC]

wear 2 wigs, but also some stitches to secure their positions together...
yeah, so i'm wearing quite an amount of money on my head...
