Thank you!
I used some clear bra straps. It's kind of something that's easier to show than explain. I got 4 straps total. 2 for each shoulder (for the sake of rip prevention).
Next, I hooked 2 straps together and tied em up reaally tight. Then because I'm still kind of a cosplay noobie, I hot glued those ends up. Then I sewed it to my tails! ...(and then hot glued them to stay better).
They're really heavy so I only have about 5 up. The other 4 just drag across the floor. I really didn't want them to, but my noobiness ended up making it that way. >__<;
Oh, they're also around my waist on a belt. They're not actually attached to the belt though. They have some ribbon in them that leads out and ties to the belt. The tails have some "extension" of white fabric sewn at their base. Basically because I knew if I put fur under my dress, it would poof out really bad. So I used some flat white fabric that hides under my dress.
...Kind of complicated to explain! I tried my best though! You'd do best not to attempt what I did. xD;

Well y'see, I really wanted to use some wire too. But holy crap, just the fabric itself with no polyfill in it was too heavy to have it stand up. O_o But it's such nice fabric I didn't want to waste it or anything, so I just did what I could.
My other idea was just to attach them with velcro, but that didn't work either. xD
My last resort was safety pins, although everything in me told me not to use them since they eat the fabric up. They didn't work either, but at least they didn't damage anything.
I just really didn't want to use straps. .w.
Oh well, at least it works. xD
Thank you! I'd like to see progress for your costume too!

Haha, yeah it's a pretty hard task to get those tails right!
I'm currently sewing the golden part at the bottem of her top.
After that I'll upload the photo for it (: Also orderd my wig a week ago, hope it'ss arrive soon <3 Still I'm so scared the tails will fail, let's just hope not so.. xD
Will you cosplay any other skins from Ahri aswell? (:

Can't wait to see! ^w^ Could you tell me what you end up doing for the top part of her sleeves to make it like...y'know how it puffs out and just stands up on its own? Yeah that.
I believe in you! xD
Weell...I don't particularly LIKE her other skins. D: Maybe if she gets a new skin that I like.
I really like this one but it's fanmade (also I'd have to remake 9 tails and omg my room can not handle more tails, so cramped):

Alrighty! ^w^~
Hope your skirt turns out well. c: I hope the entire thing comes out well, actually. xD
Ohh...I MIGHT invest in the Dynasty skin...Maybe it looks better in game than it does in her splash art. I also prefer the Midnight, but only over the Dynasty. ORIGINAL AHRI SKIN FTW! D<
xD My tails are sitting on a random chair in my room. You could...shove them under your bed?!

Oh :0 I didn't even know about firefox Ahri until you said something about it. xD
Well, looks like the rumor is truths now! ^w^ I want it. ;w; It's not even that fabulous but it's on sale and it's Ahri so it makes me want it. xDD
I bet it'll look great! Your top already looks quite fabulous.
Storage in the roof? Like...an attic? xD

Yep, they're heavy and make me cry inside. xD Thanks though.
I'll probably wear it without the ball and only one tail at A-Kon 2012. Then I'll wear it with the ball, contacts, and hopefully all 9 tails at NDK 2013. ^w^

Does all that fluff not make it hard to walk?

I don't suppose that costume would be for sale once you are done with it?..

No, I'm sorry. ^w^ I only made the tails and ears. My step mom made the dress for me as a birthday gift. Thanks for the interest though!
