Chiaki is officially the very first character i'll be fully cosplaying. it's in the future tense since i haven't really finished making the entire costume. gotta make the staff and bag.
almost every part of the costume is handmade. i learned basic knitting for the scarf. i had to redo the pattern for the hat a couple of times before i got it right and had to carve the symbol from foam. the gloves i bought from the store had to be re-stitched so that it'll fit perfectly to my oh-so-small fingers.
when we got the wig, it was a couple of shades darker than Chiaki's so we were a bit worried. but i think it's quite passable in pictures. hehe
i'm looking forward to the day i actually finish this project. i made three skirts just to get the right effect. my sister's thinking that we should just have the double-breasted blazer tailored.
