Description
This costume has officially taken more hours than any other costume I have ever done.

So in January I decided enough was enough and I needed to get into shape, one of my main motivators being cosplay. By Fanime this year I wanted to lose at least 30lbs. I shattered my goal and by May 25th I had lost 40. Wanting to do Devola justice I completely ripped apart the corset, for the third time, taking it in three inches, replacing the zipper, sewing the ribbon into the lining instead of on the outside, and added in industrial zip ties on top of boning so it now sits like a real corset. I took in the belt on the costume and the pants as well.

After putting in even more time on this costume, I really wanted good photos of it. Thankfully, Winnie got a hold of me- -and took some AMAZING pictures.
