Inquisitor Lavellan.

Full detail shots of my completed Alfira cosplay. Everything but the boots, jeans, and wig was made from scratch, including most of the patterns.

Jeans were dyed and I designed and hand cut an applique from HTV. Wig had tresses added and a little squirrel pin I sculpted. Boots were thrifted and needed no further weathering.

This was my first handmade cosplay. My previous cosplays had altered items or accessories made by hand, but nothing to this extent. It was also my first major sewing project.

🧝🏻‍♀️🪻 O estilo de luta de Thranduil - parte II🪻🧝🏻‍♀️

Aqui a última parte dos bastidores sobre o estilo de luta de Thranduil ( mover-se bem próximo do oponente, com ataques circulares, tal qual um toreador e, mesmo quando faz a defesa, é em forma de ataque - considerando os 1,96 do Lee Pace o Thranduil se torna realmente intimidador).

E no final um pequeno blooper que eu adoro 😂

Labrador’s Body Suit

How I made it part 1!

Hello my name is Cass. I am a cosplayer of 11 years and a Cosmaker of just over two. So take my sewing explanations with a grain of salt I only have a vague idea of what I’m doing. But here is the costume I made! With the original reference sheet.

So how did I start? Well first I got a bunch of sheets from a thrift store so I could make as many mock ups(test runs but for costumes) as I needed.

So with sheets in hand I broke down the pieces of the costume. When I started on a piece I always outline where the visable seams are. From there I figure out a few things:

1) am i going to need structure? (Boning, a corset, adding another seam etc)

2) what types of fabric would they have available to them? What fits the character while keeping true to the design?

3) Am I going to face any sensory issues? How can I add accommodations to the cosplay for that?

4) How will I get it on and off?

Things like this are important when making a costume. Sometimes I get head first into a costume and forget to sew in buttons or a zipper because I get so focused on making it accurate than wearable. So here are the answers to this questions:

1) Yes, two boning channels along the front seams to help add support. Due to the weight of the fabric I’ll need at least medium weight faux whalebone. (I had some in my stash)

2) at least 3 different fabrics. Two different shades of black and a black fur. I knew I wanted a Wool for the chest and sleeve part of the pattern(fabric pictures below). I found brocade for a steal and just bought the whole bolt.

3) yes! Brocade and wool are both itchy which means I MUST install a lining out of a fabric i can handle. (Twill is my go to, it looks nice and feels okay). Fur is tbd on overstimulation.

4) B E E E G zipper (22in zipper to be exact with fasteners for the collar)

Starting the Pattern

So starting my pattern I always trace out the seam lines and see what problems will arise when I begin the pattern. I knew the pattern was going to look incredibly weird. With the seamless back design, the personal desire of adding pockets, the seam somehow overlapping at the top(normally seen on the hems of men’s jackets. It’s not apparent in the photos but in the animation it is), the back situation? With the corset back and thread that disappears?

I knew the draping method was going to be my best friend so I grabbed my bed sheets, heat erase marker, and washi tape and got to work. I marked out my pattern on my dress form and draped the pattern over it.

The biggest questions looming over me were starting to get overwhelming but here’s how I did it.

Problem: Making the corset back look neat

Solution: Adding enough room and fabric allowance to flip the fabric over and allow my eyelets to go through a double layer of my brocade fabric(a heavy structured fabric). Allowed for the seamless connection to the bodice piece of the bodysuit.

Problem: Seamless back panels

Solution: Sewing the lining fabric to JUST the tail coat portion of the pattern and sewing the back of the pants to the lining and NOT the actual brocade

Luckily I have experience in men’s tailoring so the funky top hems were not a problem. I just had to remember to account for the extra big seams I was going to have for my boning channels.

My Hawke cosplay 2015 - 2024

I can't believe that I first cosplayed Hawke almost 10 years ago, and that I can see how my skills have improved -- so much that I'm going to Vienna next month to compete in an international competition thanks to this costume! <3

I'm so excited for this pic! Damn, it was so cold that day, but it worth it.

Thanks Dani for the editing.

Hi there, here you have a new photo of Aerith.

This costume was a challenge because the jacket and the wig (that weights 900 gr) were, well, a little time consuming. Again all is handmade, I even painted the flowers :3

So I hope you like it :D

2 months overdue, but I finally finished my Clawdeen cosplay project!

Every year since about 2018, I go to Spirit Halloween and try to find something that I can use to test my costuming/makeup skills and create a stage/contest worthy costume or makeup

Last year, I wanted to fix up their new Monster High costumes and chose Clawdeen as she was the most derivative of the box art. I got most of the alterations done in August, but then got extremely busy with school which took up a lot of time and mental energy.

I also just recently picked up shoemaking, and spent a LONG time making and remaking patterns as I DESPISED that they made Clawdeen’s boots legs warmers instead of shoe covers (and I figured a shoe without a toe puff or heel counter would be a good place to start)

Anyway, despite these hang ups, I decided not to give up on this and knew I could knock it out during winter break, and she’s finally here! 💜
