Wow! This is amazing! How long did it take to make your costume? Whatever time it took, it was worth it. You are the real world Zelda!

This is incredible! The detail is amazing! I have to ask, and sorry if someone's asked already but did you do the embroidery yourself or was it an iron on kind of thing?

akuriko In reply to honeycrackle [2011-02-28 08:08:08 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Yes, the embroidery on the bodice was done by hand by me, and the embroidery on the gloves and bottom of the gown are iron-ons, but I made them from scratch by machine darning them directly onto tear-away stabilizer and bonding them to heat 'n' bond. I did it this way because I knew the dress fabric would pucker if I tried embroidering directly on it, and the glove fabric would've stretched. ^ ^

This is a stunning costumes! The detail and embroidering looks marvelous, and the wig is done to perfection. I also like the fabric you used for the purple part of the costume, its different then i first imagined her dress to be like, but I prefer yours far more.
And like its been said before, the model pulls it all off. You are just lovely.
-Cheers!

I am very curious as to how long it actually takes to put on the whole outfit including the wig.

akuriko In reply to Pasithea [2011-02-11 02:12:10 +0000 UTC]

It can take anywhere from 2 to 4 hours. Sometimes longer if I'm feeling lazy. XD;

Is that your real hair? If not, how did you get it to stay with the extra weight on the back?

akuriko In reply to BleachcakeCosplay [2011-01-22 02:13:13 +0000 UTC]

Nope, it's a wig. ^ ^ I anchor it by putting my hair in pincurls, then I use hairpins to secure the wig to my head. Without them, the wig just slips right off the back of my head lol.

BleachcakeCosplay In reply to akuriko [2011-01-22 02:55:42 +0000 UTC]

Lol, yeah, I had a problem like that with another wig that had a high ponytail. Wigs feel so much heavier than real hair @_@

This is true, but it's also not permanently attached like real hair.
