"I surprisingly found my inspiration photo for this cosplay via tumblr, I then reverse image searched it to find out what it was from: Panty & Stocking. Many of my cosplays I will make sure to know the character first, but this one I actually watched the show while I was making it because I already knew that I had to wear this awesome outfit!" 

"I consider this my first 'real' cosplay because it was the first time I didn't try to cut many corners or have it be considered easy. I really tried to go all out (the best I could at this time). I remade the skirt atleast twice, and that was when I discovered the ability to modify patterns. I also got my first taste of the strange ways you can make almost anything for cosplay; the blue hearts being made from broken ornaments and sprayfoam."

"I think my favorite item in this outfit are the wings! I was lucky enough to have my boyfriend create the template based from my Yaya Han wings, he then cut the craftfoam and put together the entire thing and found a way for them to attach. I feel like really make the cosplay seem ethereal~"
